About Us

The Pgh Business Collective and The Women’s Collective were designed to provide relationship-based networking events for a vetted membership of successful corporate professionals and established business owners. It is an inclusive community representing a diverse range of industries and occupations from operations to finance to business development.

Members join for a variety of reasons including: top-notch networking and collaboration, idea exchange, camaraderie, and professional development.

Events are held in newer elevated spaces to provide a memorable experience and support local businesses.

Many of the events have speakers on a business or lifestyle topic that appeal to a motivated membership that is always seeking to improve both professionally and personally.

Both groups give back to charity. The past two years, the beneficiary has been the Anya Elyse La Mar Foundation - a pediatric cancer foundation.
