Welcome to our newest event, presented by the Women In Business Council. The Woman Effect is a virtual podcast-style interview with women who have made it, in a male dominated industry. Guests will be CEOs and/or executives from various industries all over the US. The entire event will be one hour, from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. The first 30-minutes will be the guest telling her story on FB Live while the second 30 minutes will be an intimate discussion with up to 20 women "offline" in Zoom.
SUMMER PIEP
FOUNDER | OWNER & OPERATOR
An explorer at heart from Idaho, owner Summer Piep founded Palm Beach Distillery. She combines her taste for the coast with her passion for chemistry to develop the most adventurous spirits possible. She has called sunny South Florida home since 2015.
IT ALL STARTED IN 2017...
Eager for a new place to set sail in her professional life, owner Summer Piep set out to create Palm Beach Distillery. An accountant by trade and a closet chemistry nerd by night, the craft spirits industry seemed to be a great fit for her know-how and passions. Plus, she's always loved sharing cocktails with good friends!
With more than 1,500 craft distilleries across the US in 2018, only about 30 of those were female owned and operated, Palm Beach Distillery is proud to have been the first female owned and operated shop in Florida. The ladies of Palm Beach Distillery do everything from developing their own products and working the loading docks to moving the latest shipments.
