Mary Berry
Founder of Made Visible

I felt supported. I felt safe. I felt like I belonged.

“GeekPack IRL filled me in a way I didn’t even realize I needed. The room was alive, full of energy, conversation and women lifting each other up. I almost lost my voice trying to talk over the buzz of it all, but what I gained was so much more.

Julia and her team have created a space that feels both powerful and personal. A place where connection happens easily and support feels natural. The women in that room? Brilliant, encouraging, and deeply authentic. The experience was a gift.“

CEO Day was everything I didn't know I needed.

“I didn’t know what to expect and you told me not to bring anything, this was a rare treat. I love that the team took care of everything including food so I could just be.

I was able to give and receive in a way that was perfectly timed for the season of busines that I was in. Thank you!“

The energy in the room was contagious.

“Amazing Event. I can’t stop thinking about it. I’ve been to a few others, but GeekPack IRL was more personable and well structured.

I’m excited to implement the new strategies and knowledge into my business. Looking forward to next year.”

What Does A GeekPack CEO Day Look Like

Here’s what the GeekPack CEO Day was built around.

Expert Panels & Talks

Expert Panels & Talks

Conversations with women who’ve built, scaled, and figured it out – covering the topics that actually matter to your business right now.

Think business strategy, navigating change, AI, branding, revenue – brought to life by leaders who’ve lived it.

No generic keynotes, but real insight you can use.

Hands-On Workshops

These aren’t sessions you sit through – they’re sessions you take action. Come with a question, leave with an answer (and a plan).

Things like building a 90-day revenue plan and stress-testing your brand strategy. Denver’s workshops are in the works, but you can expect the same roll-up-your-sleeves energy.

Hands-On Workshops

Interactive & Networking Activities

Interactive & Networking Activities

Structured so even the introverts leave with real connections.

Speed networking, curated table conversations, group activities designed to spark ideas – moments that make it feel less like a conference and more like a room full of people who genuinely want to see each other win.

What attendees said after their GeekPack CEO Day

I attended CEO Day and walked away well equipped with all the tools I needed to get started. There were women that have done all of this before, women that coach the beginning stages, and women in the exact same place I was!

Mindy Pluma

Being in that room, I realized I was exactly where I needed to be, surrounded by the women I was meant to connect with. Entrepreneurship may be challenging, but it's also incredibly worthwhile. And with a community like GeekPack, I feel equipped, supported, and on a path toward meaningful success.

Ajia Haizel

This is the first professional development event I've attended just for my own business. I really enjoyed the intentional space to focus specifically on what matters. The session topics were even more useful than what I'd imagined.

Tayler Onion

I went into the day thinking I would not be able to connect with anyone since my business was food related. Well, I wasn't the only one there! My table of women was so inspiring, and we all connected in such a big way that I know I have solid touchpoints for as long as I need them.

Marie Van Asch

GeekPack is a fantastic way for women who want to get started to be introduced to like-minded women and make connections. Even though they are shy or unsure. A great collaboration of women supporting women.

Ann Langston

I left feeling empowered, inspired, and energized to take our organization to the next level. I am also so grateful for the GeekPack space to support other women and feel supported by them too.

Trish Nance

It was so great to connect with other like-minded women looking to support their businesses. I made connections that I have a feeling I will have for a long time. I can't wait for the next IRL!

Jen Kilman

I loved the guided getting-to-know-you format. The questions and discussion prompts were approachable and not the kind that make you feel put on the spot. Everyone I was paired with was a delight to speak to.
