By Connections editors

PBWC Founder Senator Jackie Speier and President Debra Boblitt are set to greet thousands of California’s brightest women professionals and young women gathering on May 2nd at Moscone Center for the 17th annual Professional BusinessWomen of California Conference. The event unites best-selling authors, business experts and inspirational leaders in a power-packed program that has reached more than 57,000 women over the past 16 years. 2006 also marks the 10 year anniversary for the young women's program with special sessions, guests and scholarships for high school women.

In their welcome message, Speier and Boblitt said, "More than 57,000 California businesswomen have gathered over the past 16 years in San Francisco and Sacramento to create a better world for ourselves and those who follow. Our 2006 San Francisco conference once again offers an extraordinary opportunity to join women from a variety of professions and backgrounds in a day of learning, sharing and inspiring. Nationally-known and respected women will present seminars to explain their successful strategies that will entertain as well as inspire. Our keynote Speakers are experts in their fields and are living proof that women are setting the pace for this nation as never before. Each year, PBWC conferences are life-changing experiences for over 8,000 Northern California women and girls so enjoy your day and experience the power of connection!"

They continued, "...PBWC continues to seek new and innovative ways to build an organization that is an even stronger ally for women across California and across the public and private sectors. When we created PBWC 17 years ago, we hoped that the skills, inspiration and strategies the organization brought to businesswomen would help you create careers that were fulfilling and successful. We continue to strive toward this goal by providing you with cutting edge conferences and membership in an organization that puts you in direct touch with the very best and brightest lights in business today."
