Well ladies, it’s official: Women in Retail Leadership Summit 2017 is over! And what a phenomenal time we all had. Hate to toot our own horns here, but the event was spectacular. Three days of great networking, content, weather and, of course, the very best attendees we can ask for. Every year after I leave the Summit, I feel like I’m on cloud nine for a week or so, happy and satiated from all the knowledge I gained and all the great contacts I made.

To give you an idea about how the event went from others besides me, I thought I’d share some tweets from attendees so you can get a feel for the show. Here goes:

@jill_s_dvorak: “I have a wirs hangover … it was so great, I need more!”
@ladniergroup: “Still on an inspirational high. Best event ever!!!!!”
@Catandnat: “Thank you for having us! What a room filled with amazing women!”
@clwhoville: “Barbara is such an inspiration! Thanks #WIRLC”
@Jessica_Kane: “Georgeous night networking at #wirsummit. Best location and best attendees of ANY retail event I’ve ever been to. Worth every penny! Thank you Melissa @wirleadership for making such a great event”
@lconwell22: “Love being amongst inspiring women at #WIRsummit representing @Retail_DnA! #retail @WIRLeadership”
@WolfgangHarbor: “It’s not about balance, it’s about prioritization. You can have it all, just not at the same time. #WIRsummit”
@LuLuGe: “We need to thank Trump for activating millions of women … I dug deep for that one” — @Stormy_Simon #girlcrush #WIRsummit”
@KiboCommerce: “We’ve loved meeting so many leading and inspiring women in retail. Thanks for a great conference! #WIRsummit”
