WASHINGTON, March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ A recent study over a 10-year period showed Arizona s women business owners (WBOs) grew by 53.6 percent in number, but only 1.9 percent in employment meaning they were starting businesses at an impressive rate but not growing them. To support their growth, three chapters of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) in Phoenix, Greater Tucson and Sedona-Verde Valley are hosting the Women With Vision conference now in its second year. We wanted to create this fire in our state to support WBOs, and the only way we could do that is by coming together, says Angela Garmon, NAWBO Phoenix s immediate past president, who co-chairs the event with current chapter president Jean Briese.
