About SWC
The Satellite Women’s Conference (SWC) began in 2018 with almost 60 women representing 40 companies, who took a leap of faith to participate in an industry first women’s only event. In just three years SWC grew by 35% with continued enthusiasm and inspiring support. In 2021, Satellite was honored to host over 80 women from over 50 companies, representing a mix of 60% first time and 40% returning attendees. To fuel this momentum SWC has moved around the country to make it more accessible, going from Minneapolis, MN in 2018 to Scottsdale, AZ in 2019, with a digital event in 2020, followed by an engaging in-person event in 2021 in Nashville, TN. But we didn't stop there, in 2022 we celebrated year 5 in sunny San Diego, year 6 in Austin, Texas, year 7 in Leesburg, Virginia, and year 8 in Denver, Colorado serving over 140 women. Now in our 9th year, we hope to serve 200 amazing women from an even broader audience.
SWC has evolved into a connected community of strong businesswomen not only within the portable sanitation industry but also beyond our borders, ranging from small and medium sized business to larger, corporate organizations. Decision makers, owners, managers, field technicians and office staff; with seasoned experience, a few years under their belt, or those who just received their business license and are eager to get started!
