Hello EWI of San Diego Members –

Our EWI of San Diego September Chapter Meeting at member firm San Diego Convention Center proved to be spectacular.    Thank you to San Diego Convention Center, President and CEO, Rip Rippetoe, and member rep Pat Evans for hosting this great event. Rip treated us to a video presentation of  – What is a Convention Center? He also uploaded the video on social media and provided real views by professional social media company, which make video more visible for all interested public. We saw how a convention center has a ripple effect in supporting the local community and economy. Also thanks to our newest member Rita De La Fuente from the Convention Center for her hard work in organizing this stimulating and informative program, including stepping in at the last minute as moderator for the panel!!

After we enjoyed an absolutely delicious dinner, our program began.  We were privileged to have a panel of inspiring women share compelling and truthful answers about their journey to becoming new leaders in San Diego.  Thank you to:

Karen Totaro –  Chief Operation Officer, San Diego Convention Center

Betsy Brennan –  President and CEO, Downtown San Diego Partnership

Kim Becker –  President & CEO, San Diego International Airport

Janice Brown – Chair of the Board of Directors, San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation (EDC)

I believe everyone in the room had takeaways from our panels words of wisdom.  Definitely a meeting that was educational and memorable!

As always a big thank you goes out to our programs chair Colette Morel, Manpower, who continues to ensure our programs are tremendous throughout the year.

Hope to see you at our next chapter meeting October 16^th (location details soon to come).  At this meeting we will be installing our new 2018/2019 Board of Directors. 

Thank you all for supporting EWI of San Diego!!!
