About the conference

Develop HER Women’s Summit

The Develop HER Women’s Summit welcomes all women to join us for our 9th annual community-focused leadership conference. The summit will span themes of professional, personal, and community leadership to develop and empower women to elevate Memphis. Women will learn how to make an impact in their personal and professional lives and how together we all can make a difference. 

The one-day event includes breakout sessions with local leaders, vendor booths focused on women’s issues and interests, a luncheon featuring a panel of top female leaders, and a keynote address. Develop HER is the only local event dedicated to developing and empowering women.

Past Memphis Women’s Summit Keynote Speakers include Joan Lunden, journalist and television host; Susan Packard, co-founder of HGTV; Erin Brockovich, environmental activist; Dominique Dawes, Olympic-winning gymnast; Shiza Shahid the co-founder and former CEO of the non-profit Malala Fund; Sarah Thomas, American Football League official; and Dr. Deshauna Barber, former Miss US.
