Join us for 2026 ICONS: Women of Note – Atlanta, taking place September 9, both in person at the St. Regis Atlanta and virtually.
ICONS is an exclusive leadership experience for women in finance, bringing together rising stars and established leaders for candid dialogue, genuine connection, and the kind of perspective exchange that moves careers forward. Featuring conversations with dynamic, diverse finance icons who are navigating today's most complex challenges and driving meaningful change within their organizations, this premium, curated gathering goes beyond the traditional conference format, designed for authentic relationship-building and substantive discussion, not panels you'll forget by Monday.
