WHY THIS SUMMIT
Your certification
opened the door.
We get you the contract.
You did the work. You got certified. But certification alone doesn't fill your pipeline; the right room does. HER GOV Summit 2026 is where certified women connect directly with the buyers, primes, and decision-makers who are actively looking for you.
◆Live access to procurement decision-makers and agency buyers
◆Real contract opportunities, not just workshops and theory
◆Teaming introductions with established prime contractors
◆A room full of women who have been exactly where you are
We did it in 2025; we're doing it bigger in 2026
Last year, 70+ women showed up.
Here's what happened.
HER GOV Summit 2025 took over Houston, Texas in May and the room changed lives. Women left with contracts, connections, and the confidence to pursue opportunities they never thought were possible.
We did it in 2025; we're doing it bigger in 2026

Hear from the community
Real women.
Real wins.
Hear directly from women who walked into HER GOV CON and walked out with contracts, partnerships, and a seat at the table.
What you'll walk away with
Three things that
change everything.
Connections
Direct access to agency buyers, prime contractors, and SBA representatives who are actively seeking certified women-owned businesses. These aren't LinkedIn connections, they're people in the room ready to do business.
Contracts
Actionable intelligence on open solicitations, set-aside opportunities, and teaming arrangements you can pursue the moment you leave. We bridge the gap between certified and contracted.
Confidence
Walk in certified. Walk out knowing exactly how to present, propose, and win. Our sessions are designed to equip you with the language, strategy, and unshakeable belief that you belong at the table.
What you'll walk away with
This is what empowerment
looks like in a room.
