Susan Ahlstrom
The Ridgefield chapter of BIG, Believe, Inspire, Grow, will host a special presentation on Supporting Women Entrepreneurship with the Chamber of Commerce’s executive director, Susan Ahlstrom. The meeting will take place on May 6 at noon at the Tiger’s Den Sports Bar & Grill (23 Catoonah Street).
Ahlstrom has experience as both a start-up owner and entrepreneur. She was one of the first U.S. franchise owners of The Body Shop, a U.K. company. She will be sharing her insights on female entrepreneurship as well as what resources the Chamber offers business owners.
“Many of our members are home-based solopreneurs and we are looking forward to hearing from Susan how we can utilize the resources that the Chamber offers in order to build our businesses in the Ridgefield community and beyond,” said co-leader Kate Fitzpatrick, CEO and founder of Kate Fitzpatrick Consulting.
