I [Laurel Delaney] just finished hosting the 9th Annual Global Small Business Forum in Chicago which is all about showcasing fantastic business owners who rock the world with their international expansion efforts.  At the forum, each panelist shared their story – challenges and successes – for what it takes to go beyond borders with a business.

Discover these 4 women business owners.  Shop their products and use their services.  

1. Tami Lange, Founder, Save the Girls
2. Amy Mills, President, 17th Street Barbecue
3. Yvette Laugier, Founder, YL Advisory
4. Valarie King-Bailey, CEO, OnShore Technology Group

Above are just a few of the photos from the event capturing some of the women entrepreneurs who have escaped from corporate America and run their own successful businesses. 👏

The event was sponsored by Associated Bank (Diamond Young is Assistant VP, FX at AB) and hosted by Foley & Lardner.
