Sowing Our Seeds Empowerment Convergence 2025
Reclaim. Reinvent. Rise.
December 11–14, 2025 • Hilton Head, SC • Beachfront Mansion
You’ve carried teams, families, and missions. Now it’s time to sharpen your strategy, restore your energy, and
expand your network—on the beach, with women founders, veterans, and allies who execute.
Who it’s for: Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSBs), veteran entrepreneurs, and small-business leaders
ready to grow in the federal and commercial markets—without the fluff.
What’s included in your registration:
Beachfront mansion lodging included (shared room experience; double occupancy; Dec 11–14)
Access to all keynotes, workshops, breakouts, and the mentoring clinic
Morning wellness sessions (sunrise yoga + meditation)
Daily breakfasts, networking lunches, and signature evening events
Materials, templates, and action-planning resources
Community directory + post-event connection hub
Limited to 30 registrants. Intimate, curated, results-driven.
Early Bird: $1,999 (through Oct 31, 2025)
Standard: $2,499
Payment plan: 4 installments — at signup, Oct 17, Oct 31, Nov 14 and Nov 28 (balance due by Nov 28). Available via Eventbrite or Neon.
Address is provided 3 days prior to the event for privacy and security.
Why this room matters:
Non-matching NAICS/keywords in SAM/DSBS → Buyers can’t find you.
Brochure-style capability statements → Don’t translate to mission impact.
Non-compliant packaging (forms, filenames, page limits) → Disqualified fast.
At SOS, you’ll fix the silent deal-killers, upgrade your positioning, and leave with a tight 90-day plan.
