Women In Government Private Sector Membership Structure
On January 1, 2025, the current Women In Government private sector support structure (Associate Members, Business Council members, Business Council Plus members) will be replaced by an improved structure for companies, trade associations and other organizations that want to partner with WIG and support the organization’s work throughout the year. The Business Council will continue to exist, but with four levels of engagement and support. The Council will continue to be led by three volunteer officers elected by Council members, and the Council Chair will continue to attend Board of Directors meetings on behalf of the Business Council.
