PANEL & PARTY | WOMEN’S CHOICE AWARD CONVERSATIONS CONNECTING WOMEN LEADERS by VANNGA NGUYEN

The ADVNT Society presents: the inaugural Women’s Choice Award Conversations, co-produced with Ladies First, and co-hosted by Vannga Nguyen.

On November 28, 2018 at Fig & Olive in West Hollywood, the event was attended by 200+ female founders, experts, creatives, and emerging talent from all fields, including fashion, entertainment, tech, media, and art.

Our panel of women leaders shared experience and insight on creating new spaces and opportunities for women in their industry. We also honored an emerging star and youth leader.
