DESCRIPTION:

PITTSBURGH, April 29, 2021 /3BL Media/ - PNC Bank is proud to announce its 11th annual Women in Business Week, which will be held virtually May 10 – 14, 2021.

Through this annual event, PNC provides female financial decision makers – from business owners and executives to women who may be managing their finances for the first time – with an opportunity to glean valuable insights for themselves, their families and businesses. The events will be all virtual, allowing women to participate regardless of their location.

According to a recent PNC Economic Outlook Survey of Small and Mid-Sized Business Owners, nearly three-quarters of women business owners surveyed were affected by a reduction in operating hours, capacity or a total closure of their business due to COVID-19. In the fourth quarter of 2020 nearly two-thirds of women business owners said they had not yet returned to a normal operating cycle. During Women in Business Week, panelists will share their personal and professional struggles and triumphs weathering the pandemic and throughout their careers.

This year's lineup features nine motivational and informative events headlined by keynote speaker Jessica O. Matthews, founder and CEO of Uncharted Power and inventor of SOCCKET, an energy-generating soccer ball, and Irin Carmon and Shana Knizhnik, co-authors of "Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg."

"One of our goals for PNC Women's Business Development is to accelerate women's financial equality," says Laura Gamble, PNC regional president of Greater Maryland, vice chair of the PNC Women's Business Development Executive Advisory Board and a PNC-Certified Women's Business Advocate. "Women in Business Week gives us an opportunity to engage women in meaningful conversations about their careers, their businesses, and their families – and how to manage it all in a way that leads to financial equality."

Women in Business Week is just one example of PNC's commitment to be intentional and consistent in how we engage, enlighten, attract and retain clients and employees who identify as women. Virtual Women in Business Week events are free and available to the public. Anyone interested in attending can register for any or all events at pnc.com/businesswebcasts.

In addition to Women in Business Week, PNC Bank offers a national network of more than 3,000 PNC-Certified Women's Business Advocates and supports numerous activities, events and organizations, such as the U.S. 30% Club and the Women Presidents' Organization, that mentor and advocate for women entrepreneurs and executives. Through these Women's Business Development efforts, PNC strives to bring women together through interesting and informative programs, focusing on financial wellness and empowerment for customers and non-customers alike.
