TESTIMONIALS
“We have left this conference the last two years saying we can’t wait for next year and how great it is to be reminded we’re not alone in the Birmingham LGBTQ+ entrepreneurial space.”
“Both years, I have planned on only attending for a specific session or two and have ended up staying the entire day. Right after I fill this survey out, we are meeting with a potential client we met at the conference!!”
“I love what this conference does to my heart and soul every year and I hope everyone in these spaces gets to experience the joy that is this event.”
