Partner Melanie Bartlett will speak in a breakout session titled "The Altitude Check: Compliance Trends Every WBC Director Should Be Watching" at the 2026 AWBC Leadership Conference.
Women's Business Centers are being encouraged to act more entrepreneurially, bringing in new lines of revenue: fee-based services, earned revenue, and new categories of donors. Each move carries benefits as well as compliance considerations for the WBC and its host organization.
In this fireside chat, Melanie Bartlett, Partner at Foley Hoag LLP, joins AWBC CEO Corinne Goble to unpack what directors should be watching for: the growth of donor-advised fund sponsors and the host organization agreements worth revisiting before adding a revenue line. Come with your questions for the open Q&A at the end!
