Social entrepreneur and financial consultant Tope Ganiyah Fajingbesi, a former Hillary Clinton presidential campaign organizer, created She-EO to break cultural barriers. She designed the event to help women build their leadership muscles, be inspired and learn resilience, get answers to tough questions about money, business, career management, and even love and relationships, and much more.

According to Fajingbesi, She-EO brings together a broad base of women looking to build a better world. "There is something at the event for women from all walks of life, whether they are looking to be change agents in their personal world, are looking to build a business of their own, or want to be more successful leading projects or departments in their organizations," Fajingbesi said.

The Baltimore edition will be the third She-EO event in less than a year. The first edition was held in Columbia, Maryland, in August 2017, followed by She-EO 2.0 in Lagos, Nigeria, in January 2018.

Registration is open now for the July 28th event, which will be held at the John and Frances Angelos Law Center at the University of Baltimore.  The event runs from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (EDT).
