Women in Procurement

Leadership & Development Seminar.

Women in Procurement (WiP) unites a dynamic community of women who uplift, inspire, and champion one another — sharing knowledge, sparking growth, and celebrating their personal and professional journeys.

FOSTERING A COMMUNITY WHERE WOMEN champion WOMEN

An advocate for women in procurement and guided by an advisory board of talented industry leaders, KonnectHouse is excited to bring WiP to Boston in 2026!
