Boulder, Colorado – August 20, 2024 – For decades, the Boulder Chamber has hosted the Women Who Light The Community signature event, a tradition honoring the extraordinary contributions of businesswomen in the Boulder Region. This event goes beyond an evening of awards and fellowship; it’s a celebration of the remarkable, passionate women who tirelessly drive positive change and make a dedicated impact across our community.

Each year, six honorees are selected from a pool of peer-nominated businesswomen, representing leadership from across sectors including business, nonprofit, education, arts, and local initiatives; these honorees were selected for being trailblazers whose innovative approaches are shaping Boulder and beyond.

This year’s honorees share a common goal: a dedication to changing our community and our world through leadership and passion. Their work lights the way for future change and a strong, inclusive future for all, inspiring us all to make a difference.

You’re invited to join us in celebration on September 10 from 4:30-7:30 p.m. at the Embassy Suites in Boulder as we honor these world-changing leaders. Your ticket will include engaging networking, appetizers, dinner, dessert, and drinks.

Tables are available for purchase and include front-of-the-room seating, company designation, and special recognition of your support. This is an opportunity to bring your company and celebrate women who are inspiring change in our community while hearing their stories of impact, innovation, and change.
