Connect Belong hosts a morning meetup for women entrepreneurs in the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley area of Arizona, usually on the 2nd Wednesday of the month from 9 to 11 a.m. If you are a female founder or woman business owner who feels alone building your business, you will find real friendship and support here. Women also join us from Phoenix, Tempe, Cave Creek, Fountain Hills, and across the Valley.

Usually the 2nd Wednesday of each month, from 9 to 11 a.m. Dates can shift now and then, so sign up for the email list to get each month's details.
Where do we meet?
In the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley area. Once you sign up, you receive the exact location and everything you need by email.
What should I expect?
Start by mingling with a few women over a drink or a bite to eat. Then enjoy a value-packed presentation, where members share first and others are invited to contribute. No cliques, just community.
Who leads this circle?
Jessica Prather leads the Scottsdale / Paradise Valley circle, with Connect Belong founder Tara Dunn as her guide.
Who comes?
Female founders and women business owners at every stage, from women just getting started to founders leading a team. You don’t need a polished pitch, just the desire to be part of something real.
