Almost-president Hillary Clinton will be arriving in the Bay Area the week after next to deliver a keynote address at the 28th annual Professional BusinessWomen of California (PBWC) conference at the Moscone Center West on March 28.
This is the first time Clinton will have passed through San Francisco since a pre-election appearance on October 13. She earlier had to skip a September fundraiser due to that infamous bout of pneumonia. And in case you missed it, AOL has a slideshow of her recent haircut.
As ABC 7 notes, the PBWC features "cutting-edge seminars by top thought-leaders, panels of industry experts, and networking opportunities with leading business executives," as well as a number of high-profile speakers, which this year will also include actress and Empire star Taraji P. Henson, and Rosario Dawson.
ABC 7 anchors Ama Daetz, Kristen Sze, and Cheryl Jennings will be serving as hosts at the event, and last year Jennings was honored with the "Game Changer Award."
Also, Jennifer Siebel Newsom will be leading a seminar, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf will be speaking as well.
The event was begun by Congresswoman Jackie Speier, and also features an expo marketplace for women-owned businesses and other women-serving businesses.
The conference is sold out, but for those with big bucks or expense budgets for such things, there are "a limited number of tickets available for friends of PBWC donors" and donor packages start at $5000.
