The award-winning Greater Brookfield Chamber of Commerce (GBCC) presents “Celebrating Women in Business” on October 7, 2021, 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Western Racquet Club, 1800 Highland Drive, Elm Grove, Wis. Susan Marshall, founder of the Backbone Institute will moderate a panel of three women business owners as they share their successes, challenges, and wisdom gained. The panelists are Kris Falkner, president, CEO, and chairman of the board, Server Products; Lori Highby, owner, Keystone Click; and Morgan Schnabl, owner, Brunch restaurants.

GBCC is honoring its women investors who are small business owners. National Women’s Small Business Month takes place each year during the month of October. It is a time to recognize the myriad achievements of our country’s female entrepreneurs and the positive impact they are making on jobs and the economy.

Carol White, president & CEO of GBCC, said, “We are pleased to have this opportunity to recognize women leaders in our region and the impact they have. While this program is featuring women business leaders, men are welcome to attend and join in the discussion. The reality is, we can all learn from others.”
