The Corning Area Chamber of Commerce is proud to present the 2026 Annual Own It! Women’s Conference, an impactful experience designed to inspire connection, confidence, and collective growth among women across our region.

Guided by this year’s theme, “Together We Rise. Unapologetically, with Power and Confidence,” the conference will create space for honest conversations, bold ideas, and meaningful takeaways. Attendees will hear from dynamic speakers, participate in engaging sessions, and connect with other women who are driven to lead, grow, and support one another—both professionally and personally.

The Own It Women’s Conference is more than a one-day event; it is a community-building experience rooted in collaboration rather than competition. Women from all industries and career stages are invited to come as they are and leave feeling empowered, supported, and equipped with renewed confidence and practical insight they can carry forward.

Whether you are an entrepreneur, business professional, nonprofit leader, or an emerging voice in your field, this conference offers opportunities to learn, network, and grow in an environment that celebrates authenticity, strength, and shared success.

Registration opens January 5. An early bird discount will be available through February 1, with registration officially closing on March 2. Large group discounts are also available; those interested are encouraged to reach out for more information. For registration, and more information, please visit our event page!

Join us in 2026 as we come together to rise—stronger, more confident, and unapologetically owning our power.
