business expo; and much more.

of cutting-edge topics for not only
entrepreneurs , but anyone in business!
- All-new program content and new topics covered in breakout sessions including:

As a result of the amazing success of the WISE Symposium, WISE has evolved to a year-round program in the Syracuse community. Its greatest accomplishment is the WISE Center: a year-round women's business center. It provides ongoing education, mentorships and special events to new venture and growth business owners.
Through the WISE Symposium and WISE Center, area women entrepreneurs can access the readily available resources to support them along their journey to independence, profitability and success - regardless of the challenges of a tough economy.
