San Francisco, CA – January 11, 2017 - SYMPOSIA Conference (http://symposiacon.com), an annual conference for women entrepreneurs will take place on January 27-28 at the W Hotel in San Francisco.This is the fourth annual conference which will host over 200 attendees from the Bay Area in support of growing women owned businesses. Speakers include keynotes by Mary Ellen Vernon, Co-Founder & Designer of Fresh Produce fashion line and Monica Ferguson, Co-founder of Solemates, which provides shoe care solutions for women and was featured on ABC’s Shark Tank.
"Women-owned businesses in the United States represent the fastest growing segment of the economy. However, only 3% of majority women owned firms have revenues over $1 million compared to 6% of majority men-owned businesses, so it's really important to have new ways to further women entrepreneurship." said Jen Earle, NAWBO National CEO.

The Conference features powerful female founders as key speakers along with some rising stars who will inspire in-depth conversations across a range of topics and industries, including lifestyle, design and consulting.
