Women Embracing Business (WEB)

The WEB of the Norfolk Area Chamber of Commerce encourages involvement and leadership by business and professional women through networking and education.

Women Embracing Business (WEB), a dynamic initiative of the Norfolk Area Chamber of Commerce, empowers business and professional women through meaningful networking, leadership opportunities, and education.

Each spring, we honor the legacy of Marlene Ahrenholtz by celebrating an outstanding businesswoman who has made a lasting impact on both her business and the community.

At WEB, we believe in giving back. Our members actively invest time and resources to support local initiatives, making a difference where it matters most.

Join us on the second Wednesday of every month for engaging general meetings featuring educational speakers and special events designed to boost your professional development. This is your opportunity to share expertise, expand your leadership skills, and connect with like-minded women.
