Prism: A Conference for Women
Prism
“Prism” is a glass or other transparent object in prism form, especially one that is triangular with refracting surfaces at an acute angle with each other and that separates white light into a spectrum of colors.
This annual conference brings women together for a day of encouragement, empowerment and inspiration through keynote speakers, breakout sessions and networking. Held each year, Prism aims to offer a time for women to develop themselves both professionally and personally while also enjoying shopping vendors on site and connecting with each other.

PRISM (noun): A way of looking at or thinking about something that reveals a new or different perspective.
Hosted by the women-led DeKalb Chamber Partnership, Prism is more than a conference—it’s a celebration of the full spectrum of womanhood.
Step into a full day of inspiration, connection, and empowerment — a day dedicated to your growth, your wellness, and your journey. Connect with like-minded women and gain fresh perspective from our keynote speaker as she explores what it truly means to thrive in today’s world.
You’ll also hear real, relatable stories from a panel of local women who will dive into the many facets of total wellness — from mental and emotional well-being to physical health and balance. This is your space to refocus, recharge, and rise.
This year’s theme, Full Spectrum Survival, shines a light on what it means to not just survive—but thrive—through every aspect of life: building and sustaining a small business, climbing the corporate ladder, managing the weight of social expectations, balancing family responsibilities, committing to volunteerism, leading in the nonprofit world, navigating burnout, and finding personal fulfillment in the process.
Enjoy a thoughtfully prepared lunch, connect with inspiring women from across northeast Indiana, and gain insights from those forging paths across the full spectrum of experience.
Empowered women. Empowering women. Welcome to Prism.
Guiding us through this event is longtime friend and champion of the Chamber, Christie Browning, an award-winning author and business owner, as our distinguished emcee for the day.
