The SDBA’s 2021 LEAD STRONG: Women in Banking Conference, which promises to educate, enlighten and engage, will be held on Sept. 14-15 at the Sioux Falls Convention Center in Sioux Falls. This is an opportunity to connect with one another and celebrate all we have endured since we last met.

In addition to a great lineup of speakers and ample opportunity to network, come prepared for some interactive sessions. Bring your best listening skills, your most insightful questions for our industry leader panel, and bring a book or two that you would like to exchange during the “Once Upon a Time...” session. The conference will begin Tuesday evening with a reception at R-Wine Bar followed by a full day of sessions on Wednesday at the Convention Center.

This year’s service project is Call to Freedom, which provides supportive services for victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation. The SDBA requests attendees bring a gift card to donate, which allows Call to Freedom to direct resources according to need.

 See the full agenda and register to attend. There is also an opportunity for business partners to help sponsor the conference.
