Dedicated to championing the outstanding individuals in the hospitality industry and beyond, the Second Annual Bacardi Spirit Forward Women Empowerment Series, in partnership with PUNCH, wrapped up its 2019 season. Exploring timely topics such as representation, innovation, and disrupting the status quo, all through the lens of “originality,” the series featured a diverse group of voices from both inside and outside the hospitality world. Attendees from all parts of the bar, trade and media communities were treated to inspiring Q&A panels, professional workshops, engaging seminars, networking opportunities, in-depth discussions and more as the series traveled to Chicago, Los Angeles and New York.
