Our biggest celebration of the year is back

On International Women’s Day, we’re gathering inside Freeland Spirits, the women-owned distillery founded by Xcelerate alum Jill Kuehler, to spotlight the women featured in our 2025 Impact Report and the collective force behind it.

This event marks the release of our 2025 Impact Report and centers the business owners whose growth stories reflect what’s possible when women owned businesses have access to coaching, community, and resources designed for the realities of growth.

This is Xcelerate Women’s third annual Celebration of Impact. If you’ve joined us before, you already know how special this moment feels. On March 8, we’ll be in the room together recognizing the women featured in this year’s report, the wider Xcelerate community, and the collective impact we’re building.


What to Expect

Signature Cocktails

Freeland’s team is collaborating with women-owned beverage brands from our community — including Dappled Tonic Water and Maté Party— to craft something special.

An Iconic Lineup of Bites

All women-owned. All delicious.

There’s Something Different About This Room.

Freeland Spirits is more than a venue, it’s proof of what happens when women lead boldly.

On March 8, that energy fills the room. We’ll raise a glass to the women shaping what’s next and celebrate the community that makes it possible.

This is one of the few moments each year when our entire community gathers in one space.
