Walnut Creek Law Firm De La Housaye & Associates Sponsors East Bay Women's Conference Sponsor Dinner With Journalist Lisa Ling

Invitation-Only Dinner Focuses on Opportunities and Challenges for Women in Business Today


WALNUT CREEK, CA--(Marketwire - March 22, 2010) - The Walnut Creek law firm De La Housaye & Associates announces its solo sponsorship of the East Bay Women's Conference (EBWC) sponsor dinner "An Evening with Lisa Ling" which took place Sunday, March 21. The dinner honors Lisa Ling and the sponsors of February's East Bay Women's Conference. Lisa Ling, the acclaimed award-winning journalist and host of National Geographic Explorer, addressed the challenges facing women in the workplace today.

The invitation-only dinner was held at Ruth's Chris Steak House. The EBWC entitled "Navigating Change - Facing Forward," was tremendously successful last month with all events sold out. Lisa Ling was a keynoter at the event, held at the San Ramon Marriott, along with information sessions, other celebrity speakers and networking opportunities for the more than 500 women in attendance.

Angela De La Housaye, founder of De La Housaye & Associates, is very active in local organizations supporting women. She is a winner of a Women's Initiative Pacesetter Award and has now been one of the EBWC sponsors for two consecutive years because of its impact on the East Bay and the opportunity for women business owners to gather and collaborate. "I think the EBWC has a tremendous impact on the East Bay and is an excellent way for women business owners to effectively network with like-minded business professionals. I'm honored to be the sponsor of the EBWC Sponsor Dinner this year," De La Housaye said.

Sponsors of EBWC in 2010 are The PMI Group, Inc., Chevron Corporation, AAA, AT&T, Artesa Vineyards & Winery, Broadway Plaza, Bay Area News Group, Business Point Impressions, Diablo Publications, Graphics Girl USA, John Muir Health, KGO Newstalk, Miller Starr Regalia, PG&E, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., San Francisco Business Times and Wells Fargo Bank.
