Hosted by the Nebraska Center for Entrepreneurship
and Students in Free Enterprise

Symposium Please join the Nebraska Center for Entrepreneurship and Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) for lunch on October 9, 2008 at the Embassy Suites, Downtown Lincoln, to celebrate with Nebraska’s successful business professionals. This event will allow students and business people the opportunity to meet and personally interact with businesses owned and operated by women, or businesses that serve women. There will be booths set-up by different businesses for you to stop by and take a look. During lunch you will get to hear from three successful entrepreneurs. They are Cindi Cline of River City Barricade, Pamela Dingman of Engineering Design Consultants, and Elizabeth Erlandson of Licorice International.

This event will allows students and business people the opportunity to meet; we will be raising money for Job Outfitters, a program of the YWCA that helps low-income Lincoln women obtain appropriate business clothes. The clothing and accessories are donated by community women and businesses. The funds we raise will help purchase items that are not available at a specific time for a woman in need.
