WHAT WE DO
At WIB, we focus our activities on education, mentoring and networking, and on creating opportunities for leadership
that can help you advance your career.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
“Women helping women” is one of the most important features of WIB. We have found that successful female role models
can inspire our members to challenge themselves and aim for the top, and can show women that people who “walk like
them and talk like them” can become leaders in any field.
Friendly, relaxing networking is key to our – and your – success. Our events are relatively small by design (under 100
attendees is common) to enable people to have meaningful interactions with each other and with featured speakers. WIB
events spark friendships, business relationships and job opportunities by taking the awkwardness out of networking and
creating a fun, welcoming environment.

ENCOURAGING
YWIB creates programs and events geared towards
encouraging middle- and high-school girls to
consider the life sciences as a career choice. The
events ignite girls’ curiosity in biotechnology while
nurturing a business and entrepreneurial spirit.
