Women Empowering Women is proud to announce our upcoming 2026 retreat: Community & Connection

The WEW will hold its annual event September 20-23, 2026 at Hidden Pond Resort in Kennebunkport, Maine.
This exclusive event will be attended by a curated group of the industry’s top decision makers and influential guest speakers. Attendees will participate in powerful round table discussions and panel sessions comprised of the top
female executives in the industry. These sessions are more than just advocating for women in the workplace. We’ll discuss the controversial issues and societal obstacles women face every day and how we can be a powerful and positive force to combat these challenges together.

Hidden Pond Resort

From the moment you arrive at Hidden Pond, you will know you’re in for an altogether different experience. Surrounded by 60 acres of birch groves and balsam fir in Kennebunkport, Maine, our private luxury resort features two outdoor swimming pools, a three-room treetop spa, and organic dining at our award-winning restaurant Earth at Hidden Pond, all just minutes from Goose Rocks Beach.
