3. 1. CONNECTING LEADERS: We connect
top digital women with brands
While there are conferences that cater specifically to top digital
women and bloggers, and others that cater specifically to brands and
agencies, ShesConnected is the ONLY one that brings them all
together in a unique and interactive forum.
It’s the only conference with a mission of finding better ways for brands and top
digital women to work together in order to socially amplify sponsor messaging
while building great relationships with the women who make this possible.

4. 2. TOP QUALITY: It’s the only conference where
women apply to attend and are selected based on their
digital influence

attending this event are hand picked based on their social reach, power of voice, and
influence. The result is high quality attendees!

had to say about last year’s event
• "ShesConnected conference was a great opportunity to talk with brands. It offered me a
chance to begin to understand what brands need and help brands understand what bloggers
need and want."
• "It was a unique opportunity to connect with brands and other bloggers in a small, intimate,
informative and collaborative environment."
• "It was a real meeting of the minds. From the keynote speaker, panels and the round table
discussions, it was a chance to share and exchange opinions, thoughts, perspective and know
how."
• “I learned so much about what brands are looking for but I also learned more about what I was
looking for. ShesConnected conference allowed me to gain a greater understanding of what I
hope to accomplish through blogging."
