WOWSA

The Women of Wellington Saugeen Area (WOWSA) aims to inspire, empower and connect women in business in the County of Wellington and Saugeen River region in Ontario by providing education and networking opportunities.

WOWSA was established in September 2009 by eight women from Minto and Wellington North who came together believing that there was a place for a business network that supported women who run their own businesses or work in existing businesses.

WOWSA officially launched with a networking event on October 23, 2009 in Mount Forest, Ontario, and featured guest speaker Michael Fletcher of Neworld Business Coaching.
