The conference was held at the Paul Smith\u2019s Visitor Interpretive Center and women from throughout the North Country attended to connect and learn through keynote speakers, guided networking, breakout sessions, and activities. The conference was held during National Women\u2019s History Month and the day before International Women\u2019s Day; the global holiday promoting the achievements of women and encouraging activism and equal rights.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses large and small were represented; there were women who are running their own businesses to women representing large businesses including industries in hospitality, manufacturing, healthcare, local government, information technology, banking, education, real estate, outdoor recreation, non-profits, and more. Women traveled from Massena, Malone, Plattsburgh, Potsdam, Keene Valley, Watertown, Wilmington, Tupper Lake, Lake Placid, and Saranac Lake and surrounding areas to participate in the day. Keynote speaker Devan Robinson spoke about The Power of our Thoughts and emphasized how thoughts can be a force for both creation and destruction, shaping our actions and our success.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am absolutely blown away by the diversity of talents and experiences represented by the women of the Adirondacks. This conference has given us a powerful way to learn, grow and connect with each other,&#8221; said Mindy Audlin, morning keynote speaker and conference participant.<\/p>\n<p>Three women were honored during the day with the Leadership and Impact awards. Lauren Richard, Small Business Services Coordinator from the Adirondack North Country Association, was awarded The Mountain Mover, an award that recognizes someone who brings her authentic self to the workplace. Lauren was described as kind, smart, and always willing to help anyone in need. She helps small businesses and entrepreneurs and goes above and beyond in many projects; she is truly a team player.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full story in the <a href=\"https:\/\/suncommunitynews.com\/news\/108611\/inspire-and-ignite-women-in-business-conference-well-attended\/\">Sun Community News<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SARANAC LAKE | Over 100 women attended the Women in Business Conference \u201cInspire and Ignite\u201d on March 7 hosted by the Saranac Lake Area Chamber of Commerce.
