2012 Dane County Woman’s Business Directory
Welcome to website that provides the information and resources for Greater Madison business women. Assisting women to achieve their dreams and to improve their communities by helping them to start and run successful businesses.
Our aim is to increase the visibility, authenticity, influence and status of women’s businesses for the purpose of promoting economic growth and support of women in Greater Madison. The Woman’s Business Directory of Dane County is the largest, most comprehensive and most widely-used guide to women-owned businesses and women’s organizations in the Dane County.
O’Gara Publishing saw that women-owned businesses would become a powerful economic force of the future. When the first (2002) edition of the Woman’s Business Directory (formerly the Wisconsin Woman’s Business Directory) of Greater Madison hit the street, O’Gara Publishing was met with everything from polite laughter to outright disbelief. Today, the Woman’s Business Directory of Greater Madison is the largest and most widely read directory of women-owned businesses in Dane County. It has grown from a local telephone directory to a business network connecting women to each other and to the area.
