No Limits: Greater Houston Conference for Women
Now in its fifth year, the Greater Houston Conference for Women has grown into a preeminent voice for the advancement and empowerment of women across Texas and beyond.
This year’s theme, "No Limits", perfectly describes the incredible journey conference participants will take on April 25, 2013. A nationally known and inspiring group of speakers, including retired US Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, will keynote the conference. Senator Hutchison is the first woman to represent Texas in the US Senate. The former Senator will speak about her new book, Unflinching Courage: Pioneering Women Who Shaped Texas. Our panel of CEOs and C-suite executives will share invaluable business insights and eight "breakthrough" women will be featured from numerous wide-ranging fields including medicine, energy, economic development and others. This conference also marks the inaugural presentation of the Chamber’s Diversity Leadership Award.

Diversity Leadership Award
The 2013 conference marks the inaugural presentation of GHWCC’s Diversity Leadership Award. This important recognition celebrates an individual, company or organization who has a proven commitment to creating a truly inclusive environment where individuals are valued for their talent, recognized for their differences and supported as an important part of our nation’s diverse fabric.
Each year, the Greater Houston Women’s Chamber of Commerce honors "breakthrough" women in various roles and industries. As true trailblazers in their fields, they have all demonstrated amazing leadership. Women from eight fields of endeavor will be chosen.
