Build your network. Find your voice. Be inspired.

Each fall, the WIV summit shares stories of personal success and struggle along with tips and tools for building confidence and influence at work and in the community. Through engaging speakers, interactive workshops, and meaningful conversations, participants will dive into a range of topics, including leadership development, career advancement, and work-life balance. 

Virtual and regional events hosted by We Impact Virginia seek to spotlight leaders having great impact in their communities, and the annual one-day summit supports extraordinary leaders while sharing practical insights from their own careers.  

Join a statewide network of people committed to creating positive change in their communities and workplaces. All are welcome.
