The C-Track

The C-Track: Leadership at the Highest Level

The C-Track at the She Speaks CEO Women in Leadership Conference is a curated leadership experience designed specifically for CEOs, founders, C-suite executives, investors, and senior decision-makers.

While most conferences offer broad programming for general audiences, the C-Track is intentionally built for women operating at the highest levels of leadership, where conversations move beyond inspiration and into strategy, influence, capital, and growth.

Often described as a “conference within the conference,” the C-Track brings together women leading companies, organizations, and industries for executive-level dialogue and connection.

Inside the C-Track

Participants gain access to:

• Executive-level keynotes and strategic leadership sessions
• Conversations around scaling companies, capital, and influence
• High-level networking with founders, investors, and C-suite leaders
• Curated discussions designed for women shaping the future of business

The result is a rare space where women leading at scale can connect with peers who understand the responsibility, ambition, and impact of leadership at the top.

The Ascend Track: Accelerate Your Leadership Trajectory

For Rising Leaders Ready to Accelerate Their Careers

The Ascend Track at the She Speaks CEO Women in Leadership Conference is designed for ambitious women who are ready to take control of their careers and move into the next level of influence, visibility, and opportunity.

This track is about equipping women with the blueprint for advancement — helping you see the path ahead, prepare for the roles you want, and build the skills and visibility required to get there faster.

Inside the Ascend Track

Participants gain access to sessions designed to unlock the next stage of leadership, including:

• How to leverage AI and emerging technology to work smarter and more effectively
• Developing leadership presence, advocating for yourself, negotiating opportunities, and building your career strategy
• The importance of building a personal brand in any career environment

The Ascend Track is designed to ensure you are working the trajectory of your career strategically with the insight and tools that position you for leadership.

For many attendees, this track becomes one of the most transformative parts of the conference experience.
