July Women's Business Network Meeting

Join the Beverly Hills Chamber’s Women’s Business Network this July for an evening of meaningful networking, collaboration, and professional growth with accomplished women from a variety of industries.

Summer is the perfect time to strengthen existing relationships, make new connections, and generate fresh opportunities before the busy fall season. Whether you're an entrepreneur, executive, business owner, or emerging professional, WBN offers a welcoming environment to exchange ideas, build your network, and develop valuable referral partnerships.

This month's gathering is called

Beyond the Title 

Join us this July for an engaging and authentic conversation with longtime members of the Women's Business Network Committee. Hear firsthand about their journeys as women in business as they share the wisdom they've gained, lessons learned, and the stories that shaped them along the way.

This is an opportunity to get to know Lizz Khabazashvili, Karina Pires, Olga Kapitskaya, Joleigh Sherwood, and Karesa Bridges beyond their titles—discovering the experiences, challenges, and defining moments that continue to inspire both their personal and professional lives.

I'm Lizz Khabazashvili, owner and CEO of Beach Now. After building a hospitality and event management business in Republic of Georgia, I invested in and became the owner of Beach Now to continue my passion for creating exceptional guest experiences on the California coast. We specialize in luxury beach experiences, private celebrations, and coastal events where every detail is seamlessly managed, allowing our guests to book, arrive and enjoy the moment. I believe true luxury isn't about excess, it's about removing the stress, anticipating needs, and creating space for people to be fully present with the ones they love. 

I’m Karina, the founder of Karina Pires Photography, and I specialize in weddings and events. I don’t just take pretty pictures; I tell once-in-a-lifetime stories by capturing a mix of timeless elegance and genuine fun. My clients often tell me that my calming presence helps them completely forget the camera is even there. Whether it's a quiet, fleeting milestone or tearing up the dance floor, my goal is to capture the authentic magic of your day exactly as it felt. 

My name is Joleigh. I am a nanny and family matchmaker and the founder of Creating Connections. I support busy parents to search and hire the best nanny for their family. As a previous nanny myself, I know the value in finding the right fit. Through my process, including thorough vetting, I help families find their forever nanny.

I’m Karesa Bridges. I’m an administrative and customer service professional who enjoys helping people, solving problems, and keeping things organized. My strengths are communication, attention to detail, and building positive relationships. I’m excited to be part of the Women’s Business Network because I believe in the power of connection, learning from other women, and supporting each other’s success. I look forward to getting to know all of you and building meaningful professional relationships.
