The Amelia Network, a local networking group for women in business and leadership positions in the West Plains area and surrounding communities, and the Ozarks Small Business Incubator have announced the rebranding of the Business Women’s Expo as The Amelia Market.
The annual event has served as a showcase for women-owned businesses, local makers, entrepreneurs and leaders throughout the region. Organizers said the new name reflects a broader, more recognizable identity while continuing the event’s mission of supporting women in business and creating opportunities for the community to shop local, connect and discover talent across the Ozarks.
The Amelia Market will continue to feature a variety of vendors, including women-owned businesses and regional entrepreneurs offering products and services such as health and wellness items, jewelry, fashion, home goods, gifts and food.
The rebrand follows the fifth annual Business Women’s Expo, which welcomed 42 women-owned businesses from across the region and expanded the event with outdoor attractions and community partners. Organizers said the new name builds on that momentum while giving the event room to grow in future years.
The Amelia Network and OzSBI thanked the community, vendors, sponsors and local media that have supported the event.
