The Women’s Summit 2009 on June 18 will offer Orange County women business owners, networking, business matchmaking and educational workshops, according to Sallie Salinas, director of the Institute for Women Entrepreneurs, which hosts the event.

The summit will be from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Sheraton Park Hotel, 1855 S. Harbor Blvd in Anaheim.

Admission is $129 including the “Leaders of Distinction Luncheon.” Speakers will include Susan Solovic, CEO of SBTV and author of Girls’ Guide to Building a Million Dollar Business; Linda Hollander, author of Bags to Riches; and Michelle Steel, member of the California State Board of Equalization.

“Our goal is to empower women entrepreneurs to access the power within through highly motivational presenters and networking opportunities,” Salinas says.

The IWE is an economic development program of the Rancho Santiago Community College District and is a U.S. Small Business Administration-sponsored women’s business center.
