ACBJ launching BizWomen.com on Monday

American City Business Journals, which operates more than 40 business newspapers across the country, is launching a new website on Monday called BizWomen that will provide news to women business leaders.

Bizwomen plans to collect content from the hundreds of ACBJ editors and reporters in 43 different markets. The website will be run by a dedicated staff based in ACBJ’s headquarters city, Charlotte, N.C.

Bizwomen is specifically geared for women leaders seeking business opportunities, news, knowledge, and contacts who can help them grow their businesses. In addition to the site, Bizwomen will publish a weekly email newsletter highlighting the most urgent, most important and most enlightening news and information involving and affecting women business leaders.

As part of the launch of the site, an estimated 8,000-plus women business leaders in 40 cities across the country will be participating April 7 in American City Business Journals’ Mentoring Monday program.
