The Greater Fort Myers Chamber of Commerce’s Women in Business Committee will kick off the 15th season of its annual APEX Awards with a networking social on Wednesday, Aug. 4.
Women in Business will host a casual afternoon of networking that provides an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the annual APEX Awards and spend time with this year’s finalists, nominees and many APEX Sisters who are past recipients of the award. The 2021 finalists include Kathleen O. Berkey of Becker & Poliakoff, P.A., Kerri Goldsmith of HBKS Wealth Advisors and Alicia Miller of Our Mother’s Home.
The networking event will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 4 at The Wine Room, a wine bar and retail shop located at 1544 Broadway in downtown Fort Myers. Casey Cosmetic Surgery is the toast sponsor for the event.
