OAKVILLE, ON, May 20 /CNW/ - Young. Energetic. Savvy. Successful. These words only begin to describe the four young women entrepreneurs who will be sharing their stories on May 28 at the Verity Club, 111d Queen Street East, Toronto.

Take twins Fiona and Jennifer Lees, who turned their dream of creating a lip-gloss line into reality. Balmshell's immediate success has landed the sisters into a whirlwind of business opportunities, both in North America and Europe.

Carissa Reiniger, 25, of Silver Lining, has offices in four cities, a staff of 16 and revenues over a million. Silver Lining helps small businesses identify business development plans and then uses communication strategies to ensure that they reach their projected goals.



Michelle Planche, of Paradigm Events, specializes in conference and special event planning. In 2005, Planche won the Canadian Event Producer of the Year Award, and is the executive producer of the TV series Source, which highlights the struggles and successes of an entrepreneur.

"This panel will create a discussion that is thought-provoking and informative for women of all ages. We can all learn from each other," shares Anne Day, founder of Company of Women.


Hosted by Company of Women, an organization that promotes women in business, the evening begins at 5:30 p.m. with networking, followed by dinner and the panel discussion.

The cost is $65 + GST and includes a three-course dinner as well as the panel presentation. Women can register online at www.companyofwomen.ca or phone (905) 338 1771 for more information.
