In 2006 Tera McHugh, Founder of Association of Women Entrepreneurs (A of WE), came to a Betty Ferguson Foundation (BFF) women’s meeting, Mes Amies, and then met with them afterwards with an idea about having a daytime monthly meeting primarily geared towards working women. Lunch and Learn Seminars was born.
Lunch & Learn Seminars is for women of all ages and stages. BFF hosts the meeting and A of WE facilitates the meeting; they meet the first Thursday of each month, from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. at BFF’s new location, 25510 West Avenue Stanford, Suite #104, in the Valencia Industrial Center. Lunch is provided for a small donation of $10 and the featured speaker is a member of A of WE.
The speaker shares her successes, her challenges, her struggles and recommendations from her area of expertise. A question and answer period is available at the end of each seminar. Even though Lunch and Learn is a quick one-hour seminar, you will find many women who stay after the program ends to offer their entrepreneurial skills to one another. Thank you to the following speakers listed below who made this program possible in 2008.
