The first month of the year flew by and saw a lot of action in Washington, D.C. From two brief government shutdowns to the passage of a two-year budget deal with lots of new spending, our leaders have been busy tackling financial issues that have a significant impact on women entrepreneurs.

WIPP is here to make sure women’s voices are heard during the hurly-burly of policymaking and help you to make sense of what is happening in our nation’s capital. The bottom line is the decisions our leaders make have an impact on you and your business, but it is not always easy to grasp what is happening from the headlines alone.

From creating a monthly series on policy issues where members can ask WIPP experts about the rapidly shifting policy landscape, to hosting ChallengeHER events across the country that will deliver the information and connections women need to succeed in government contracting, to producing informative GiveMe5 webinars, WIPP is dedicated to providing members with the information they need to thrive.

Please consider joining us today to reap the benefits of WIPP membership. After all, knowledge is power!
