Only a few days remain until the Soirée Women’s Leadership Symposium returns to Little Rock, and the countdown is on for would-be attendees to secure their seat at the table.
The eighth annual half-day symposium will take place on Friday, April 24, at the Statehouse Convention Center in downtown Little Rock, offering networking and professional development opportunities through insightful speakers, panel discussions and in-depth workshops.
Guests will hear from keynote speakers Liz Bohannon and Cindy Jones-Nyland and have their choice of breakout sessions following the executive, entrepreneur or leading ladies tracks. Also returning this year are optional add-on workshops that will take place after the core SWLS schedule wraps up.

Before Friday’s activities, the popular VIP night will also return on Thursday, April 23, this time hosted at the Design1 Showroom on Colonel Glenn Road, complete with food, drinks and lots of networking before the big day.
“Our goal is to curate sessions that not only spark meaningful conversations, but also provide tangible strategies participants can take back into their workplaces and communities,” says Mandy Richardson, symposium founder, Little Rock Soirée publisher and ABPG consumer division president. “It’s this blend of inspiration and real-world impact that makes the symposium so special.”
