NEW YORK - March 5, 2026 - PRLog -- Addendum – Speaker Update

The Business of WE has announced a speaker update for its upcoming Leadership Conference & Dinner taking place Friday, March 6 in New York City.

Due to a recent scheduling change, Rosie Farrington, Deputy Commissioner at the USVI Department of Tourism, will no longer be participating in this year's program.

Held during Women's Month and in celebration of International Women's Day, the evening is designed for women who are building companies, leading teams, or navigating growth and expansion in their professional lives.

The 2026 speaker lineup includes:
