Large Scale Events
Women in Business takes pride in hosting four annual events that cater to a diverse range of interests. Each event aims to bring our community together to raise funds for charity. To learn more about each event and what makes them special, read more below. Take a look at our calendar, newsletter, or Instagram for dates and join us in creating memorable moments together!
01
Pink and Denim Day
Pink and Denim Day (PDD) is one of WIB’s largest fundraising events of the fall semester, which aims to raise awareness and proceeds for the American Breast Cancer Society’s: Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. Although the event typically takes place during the fall semester, this year it is being held during the spring semester. Typically, there are auctions from small businesses and fun activities such as Pie the President held in on the second floor of the NVC. This event aims to educate students about Breast Cancer by bringing in guest speakers, all while raising money to support the cause and having a great time!

Pearls of Wisdom Conference
The Pearls of Wisdom Leadership Conference (POW) is an annually held professional and fundraising event by Women In Business. Pearls of Wisdom is an award-winning event that has been recognized by the Baruch student body as its “Best Professional Event” for four consecutive years. Over 100 professional guests and Baruch students, including men and women, are in attendance each year. In 2024, Pearls of Wisdom will be held for the 18th year. In tradition with previous years, all proceeds raised from the Conference will be donated to a dedicated cause.
The Conference brings together over 20 phenomenal female professionals to engage in compelling conversations with students while sharing their knowledge, experiences, and best career advice. In connecting our undergraduate guests with these powerful, successful, and inspirational female leaders, we hope that students will be empowered by and be able to utilize the guidance, or “pearls of wisdom,” received while embarking on their own journeys toward a professional career and beyond.
Thanks to our sponsors!
