5th Annual SCORE Women In Business Conference Receives 100+ Attendees

The fifth annual SCORE Women In Business conference has been organised at the Scottish Rite Center where the participation of over 100 women was observed. The conference was being presented by SCORE Santa Fe & Northern New Mexico. It is a national all-volunteer nonprofit’s local chapter that comes with an offer of mentoring as well as resources to small-business owners.

A 52-year-old entrepreneur, Solange Serquis also attended the conference repeatedly. She is a co-owner of Cafecito restaurant that is in Baca Railyard and also a landscape architect for Serquis & Associates.

Solange said, “The truth is, we’ve turned to [SCORE] many times because that’s what happens when you’re an entrepreneur. You get to points where you’re like, ‘I need help,’ and then you carve time, and then you go to try to educate yourself in certain aspects. The lady I mentored under at SCORE, she had a lot of experience on hospitality, and I was always so in awe about any answer she had.”

Adding to the statement, she stated, “We still need to keep learning and keep sharing … at the point where we all can be more permeable and be in the moment. I think that it empowers everybody.”
