4th Annual STEAM Women Rising Symposium

March 9, 2026 | The Beeches Manor | Rome, NY

Investing in the Next Generation of Female Leaders

The STEAM Women Rising Symposium is officially at capacity, welcoming students from 11 school districts across Central New York for a full-day leadership and career exploration experience in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics.

This is more than an event.
It is intentional workforce development.


Real Impact. Real Access.

Because of our sponsors and supporters:

  • Schools attend at no cost to the district

  • Each participating school receives one full scholarship to the STEAM Leadership Conference this summer

  • 200+ young women gain direct access to professional mentors and career insight

  • Students leave with stronger confidence, clearer direction, and expanded opportunity

This is how we build a regional talent pipeline — early and intentionally.
