The Northwest Indiana Influential Women Association (NWIIWA) is a grassroots professional development association that grew out of our Influential Women Banquet and has evolved into a year-round organization serving women across industries and career stages—from early-career professionals to executives, business owners, and nonprofit leaders—through education, mentorship, connection, and leadership development within the Northwest Indiana business community.
If you’re looking for professional growth, real connection, and support at every career stage, NWIIWA is for you.
Together, our members influence every level of the professional landscape—driving progress, strengthening organizations, and creating meaningful impact across Northwest Indiana.
