Dear Friend,

Welcome to the website for the Miami Chapter of the Organization of Women in International Trade (WIT-Miami)! Our chapter’s hope is that you will find our site interesting and it will encourage you to join WIT-Miami today and begin enjoying being a part of this community of professional and committed women.

As one of forty chapters worldwide, the mission of WIT-Miami is to enhance the status of women in the field of international trade and commerce. Our chapter reaches out to our members and our community through educational, cultural, and networking events once a month.  At these events, a variety of experts provide insight into timely business, government and social issues.  At the same time, our events provide a unique forum for our members to meet and establish relationships with other professionals in the community.

Each November, we host the International Business Women of the Year Awards (IBWOY), where female leaders in South Florida are recognized for their outstanding contributions to the community. The proceeds of this event are used to award scholarships to young women enrolled in international business programs at local universities.
