Generation W 2018

Generation W presented its signature event at the University of North Florida on Friday, April 13th, 2018.

Embrace Your Potential

We are a generation who understands the power we have to make a difference in the world. Whether it’s through our commitment to the communities we serve, the professions we elevate, the board rooms we occupy, or the inventions we create, we Rise & Shine every day. Our power lies in our ability to unite in a way that shapes and changes the social, cultural, and political landscape of our world.

This year, we continued the powerful movement of women by providing an invigorating platform of speakers, as well as topics like:

  • the impact of immigration
  • building your best professional and personal networks
  • issues of social significance
  • the importance of storytelling
  • and many more.

We hope you were inspired to Rise & Shine and connect to the endless possibilities of women, the future, and each other.
