Dramatic changes continue to impact the financial services industry and women's roles within it.
Consistent with the Pacific Coast's unique business culture and resources, the Association of Women in Alternative Investing (AWAI) offers the support and encouragement of a knowledgeable and dynamic community. Members network with a range of industry leaders with whom they learn and share experiences to foster career and personal advancement.

AWAI has been created to invite members into a safe, fun, dynamic, empowering environment to share ideas, best practices, industry stories all to become better professionals, better people.
