Our Annual WELL Conference: What is WELLness? was held on Thursday, October 20th at Salesforce Tower. Attendees enjoyed presentations from speakers and powerful fireside chats and were able to network with the SF Chamber’s WELL community – gaining insights into how they can empower themselves and their colleagues to create a more equitable San Francisco.
The WELL Cohort program, sponsored by Accenture, unveiled its findings following their 6-month-long dedication to supporting a San Franciscan, women-owned, small business. A special thank you to the Pulse Check 101 and Synced Pilates WELL Cohorts for discussing the successes, growth, and challenges with their women-owned, San-Franciscan small business following their 6-month-long program.
