WHAT BOLD ACTUALLY IS

A full day of leadership, not a feel-good afternoon.

The BOLD Women's Summit is a full-day leadership-development event produced by the Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce built for women across every industry who want tools they can actually use, not a pep talk.

Before BOLD, this level of programming meant driving hours out of the region. Now it happens here, with nationally recognized speakers, breakout tracks built around where you are in your career, and a room full of people worth knowing.

Why BOLD Was Born

A simple but powerful vision.

BOLD Summit Stage

The BOLD Women's Summit was born from a simple but powerful vision: to boldly elevate the women of our region and create a space where growth, leadership, and community collide.

Developed by the Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce, BOLD exists to cultivate leadership, confidence, and connection among women from every background and industry.

It's a full-day experience intentionally designed to equip, uplift, and inspire through nationally recognized speakers, dynamic breakout sessions, and genuine opportunities for connection and collaboration.

Before BOLD, many women in our region had to travel far to access this level of professional and personal development.

Now, that same world-class experience is happening right here in Joplin, Missouri ensuring that leadership growth remains accessible, inclusive, and deeply rooted in the community we love.

The BOLD Movement

More than an event.

BOLD isn't just another women's event, it's a movement.

A movement to activate potential. Amplify voices. Build bridges.

It's where professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, and community change-makers come together to lead change and live boldly, shaping the future of leadership across our region and beyond.
