Celebrate. Connect. Be inspired.

Join us for an AWE30 community gathering celebrating women entrepreneurs across Alberta achieving success on their own terms. This is a welcoming space to connect with fellow entrepreneurs, hear real conversations, and celebrate your wins, big and small.

You’ll also learn about AWE programs and services available to support you, along with other local and regional resources designed to help you grow. Because no one builds a business alone.

We'll be hosting an inspiring fireside chat with Stephanie Gross, Red Deer–based founder and CEO of Bumby Wool.

Stephanie is an award-winning entrepreneur known for her honest, enthusiastic leadership and her ability to build profitable, purpose-driven businesses. Bumby Wool, her sustainable Canadian fashion brand, blends e-commerce innovation with traditional textile methods to create custom-fit wool garments for the whole family.

Hear Stephanie’s story of building a business with intention and creativity, learn how she defines success on her own terms, and discover the turning points, challenges, and wins that shaped her journey. She’ll share practical advice and insights for women entrepreneurs looking to grow, scale, or take the next step in their business.

This is a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and be inspired by a local entrepreneur who’s achieving success on her own terms.

Who should attend:
Women entrepreneurs at any stage, whether you’re just starting, growing, pivoting, or redefining what success means to you. If you’re looking for connection, inspiration, and community, this event is for you.
