Women's Innovative Network

The Women's Innovative Network (WIN) is a multi-generational community designed to equip students to lead, create, and grow their ideas through research, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Grounded in a mentorship-driven model, WIN connects students with experienced mentorship, coaching, and collaborative opportunities across the campus and within the community. 

WIN works in partnership with the Kendra Scott Women's Entrepreneurial Leadership Institute at the University of Texas and aims to drive a shared mission of increasing the number of women-owned and led businesses out of our student communities.

In WIN, students will:   

• Connect with a network of SMU women at workshops and symposiums
• Partner with local high schools to share research and entrepreneurial projects with students 
• Participate in pitch competitions and research initiatives across campus 
• Receive mentorship from women in the SMU and Dallas community
