Testimonials

I've been involved in several different networking groups in Indianapolis in my young business career. I have been most actively involved in NOWIB as both a member and a leader entirely due to the relationships with other like-minded professional women that I have developed over the last 3 years. These women are not only wonderful professional contacts for me but also my friends.

About Us

Welcome to NOWIB!

Our Mission
The Network of Women in Business is an organization of professional women who are searching for more from their careers and are seeking deeper connections with like-minded women as a way to build both personal and professional relationships.

Who is the network?
The Network of Women in Business (NOWIB) is comprised of professional women in the Indianapolis metro area from a diverse set of backgrounds, ages, and industries. We have come together for the common purpose of building relationships with women like ourselves, who are seeking personal and professional support and growth, friendships, and business relationships.

The History of The Network
At the close of the 1970's, a decade of transformation for many American women, eleven Indianapolis businesswomen envisioned an organization to provide a channel of communication and exchange of ideas, a way to become role models for those seeking help to better themselves and provide the support required for networking. Thus, in 1979, under the leadership of Joretta White, The Network was formed to address the unique concerns and interest of women in the Greater Indianapolis business community.

The Network of Women in Business, Inc. was incorporated on August 8, 1979 by Christine S. Halter, Bettye Jones Olds and Roberta Broderick. NOWIB was formed to assist in the development and growth of women holding managerial, executive or professional positions in business. The original Board of Directors included: Roberta Broderick, Fay M. Henning, Sande Brock, Vivian Rose Hayes, Joretta White, M. Anne Wilcox, Cathy Freebairn, Bettye Jones Olds and Christine S. Halter.

The one common thread that's held The Network together over all of these years has been the need for local professional women to develop deeper relationships, both personally and professionally, with other women like themselves.
