DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the brilliance\, leadership\, and impact of Native women innovators shaping public health\, business\, and systems change.\n\n\nThis Native American Heritage Month\, we’re proud to host a special Advocacy Committee Engagement Session (ACES) — a facilitated discussion series created by the WTE Advocacy Committee to spotlight key observance dates and equity issues that shape our lives and work.

Officially recognized in 1990\, this month is more than a reflection—it’s a recognition of leadership\, innovation\, and sovereignty. \nFrom science and policy to entrepreneurship and cultural preservation\, Native communities continue to shape the future while holding strong to traditions that have sustained generations. At Women in Tech & Entrepreneurship\, we celebrate Native women not only for their resilience\, but for their visionary leadership\, community impact\, and the systems-level change they are driving across industries. \nThis observance invites us to learn from Indigenous models of stewardship\, to challenge exclusionary systems\, and to build cross-community partnerships rooted in equity\, representation\, and respect. \n\n\n\nAbout Women in Tech & Entrepreneurship (WTE)\nWomen in Tech & Entrepreneurship is a dues-free\, member-led organization helping women across all industries start\, scale\, and lead in today’s economy.
