WOC Worldwide

WOC Worldwide came to fruition due to the lack of community for women of color in specific professional spaces. Our first event in 2018 was a brunch, during New York Fashion Week, at the exclusive Ludlow House in Soho. We hosted the top WOC in fashion and technology creating an intimate space to discuss their experiences and celebrate their success. We believe that community is the foundation of success, and we know this community matters! For that reason, we engage a broad audience of black and brown professionals and consumers with events, content, and opportunities to feel seen and heard. For over 6 years, we’ve supported research and programming putting women of color and minority consumers at the forefront of our work, engaging a broad audience of black and brown professionals and consumers with events and content. True to our track record, we continue to amplify women of color as the most important consumer - driving trends and spending in the US. Our community includes brand founders, retail professionals, product enthusiast and consumers. Today we continue our mission through in-person events and a digital platform connecting +5,000 minority women and allies for important and timely conversations. Since it’s inception, WOC Worldwide has partnered with various organizations to conduct research and initiatives and fund-raising that alleviate issues relevant to WOC, primarily in these industries: Beauty & Wellness, Retail and Cannabis. Our tireless effort, has resulted in: +10 brands launched in Nordstrom stores nationally +150 WOC highlighted as experts & SMEs +100 community and advocacy partnerships +50,000 data points collected supporting brand research +100M impressions amplifying BIPOC founders
