About

The Comox Valley Women’s Business Network is an organization of women dedicated to networking and improving business skills.  This year’s board, headed by Lara Austin, is committed to continued positive improvements for the Women’s Business Network membership.

Starting with a fresh, new website (thanks to Sue Pyper at Emagination Design) this year’s Women's Business Network will provide even more networking and promotional opportunities.  Look for our improved newsletter, internet advertising options, a mini-trade show, website profiles and more interaction with the wider community.  As Lara says,
“The WBN brings together women who are driven and purposeful in running or working in a business and gives them renewed energy.”

-- Lara Austin, 2008 president of the CVWBN and Investment Advisor with RBC Dominion Securities
