The objective of Women In The Game is to create an event experience that will provide education, inspiration, and support to women who work or aspire to work behind-the-scenes in the male-dominated sports industry. Women In The Game will launch their annual fundraising event series in Orlando, Florida on Thursday, September 6, 2012 at the posh downtown location, The MEZZ.

The event will consist of a brunch featuring an all-female panel discussion moderated by a surprise guest who will ask the panel about current events and issues affecting sports. Guests will also enjoy a Mimosa reception with additional activities like an entertaining live auction, music, networking, giveaways and more. Women In The Game is exclusive and open only to guests who are local and national professionals in the areas of sports, entertainment, media, business and community. The event creates the perfect environment for networking, charity and great conversation.
