The Youngstown Business Incubator (YBI) will be hosting a women in sports event called “Breaking Boundaries” to include Manon Rhéaume & Denise DeBartolo York as the guest speakers. The event will be a fundraiser benefiting YBI & its newest program Women in Entrepreneurship (WE). The mission of The WE program is to promote the growth and creation of women-owned enterprises as a channel for creating personal and community wealth.

This event should host 300 guests to include not only area entrepreneurs and business owners, but also up and coming young entrepreneurs. The YBI will work with local nonprofits such as the YWCA, Beatitude House and Youngstown State University to get tickets into the hands of young entrepreneurs that would like to attend the event for free.

While this event’s focus is directed toward women breaking boundaries, it is not strictly a “women’s only” event, and we encourage men, especially those that would like to hear from a panel of strong successful women in business who want to share the stories of their success so others may benefit.
