All are welcome to explore the network and apply; membership applications are reviewed individually.
- How is curated networking different from an open meetup?
- Our introductions are based on industry, interests, goals, and experience.

Events also include small-group conversations, workshops, and dinners, so you can choose the setting that suits you.See how curated networking works →

- Is there an app? How does it all work?
- Yes — everything lives in one place, on web and mobile. Our platform uses smart matching to connect you with the right members, mentors, and resources for where you're headed, and it's where you RSVP to events, browse the member directory, request introductions, and access your benefits. The technology does the connecting in the background; the value is the people it puts you in front of.
- Is membership open to everyone?
- All are welcome to apply. We review every membership application by hand; submitting an application does not guarantee admission. The network is focused on ambitious women, and our events page and Summit page explain the available ways to take part.
- Where are you based?
- We're headquartered in New York City with members across the U.S. Most of what we do happens online, so you're never on the outside for being remote — and we also host in-person events and meetups in cities including New York City, Boston, Chicago, LA, and San Francisco.
- How much time does membership take?
- As much or as little as you want. Most members join one or two events or workshops a month and lean on the member directory and introductions in between — it's built to fit around a demanding job, not add to it.
- Do you work with companies?
- Yes. We partner with employers who want to retain and promote the women on their teams — through team memberships, in-house workshops, and program design. Your women get a trusted network beyond your walls, so they grow, lead, and stay.Explore employer sponsorship and team seats →
- Can my employer pay for my membership?
- Many members expense membership through their company's learning and development budget. Ask your manager or HR whether your professional development, learning, or ERG budget can cover it. Your employer decides eligibility and reimbursement; contact Her Workplace if you need help making the request.Get your membership sponsored →
