 Prince George's County Economic Development Corporation presented the second annual EmpowerHER Global Business Summit on March 14th, 2025, at MGM National Harbor. Curated for the vibrant community of successful women entrepreneurs from the region to celebrate International Women's Day, EmpowerHER heeds the global call to action.

"This is a celebration of International Women's Day and as an economic development agency we want to highlight women in business," said Ebony Stocks, Acting President of PGCEDC at last year’s inaugural summit. . "It's about more than just empowerment, it's education, its inspiration and motivation for women in business. The event is open to business owners at all stages, from start ups and small business to business owners that have been in operation for multiple years; there is something for everyone. Important topics like access to capital will be address in our breakout sessions as well as sessions for entrepreneurs looking to expand and build connections. We have assembled women who are the best in their fields for one goal: EmpowerHER!"
