Rockwall, TX – January 16, 2026 – A powerful gathering of women leaders at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and business strategy is coming to Rockwall this winter. The She Leads Securely – Women’s AI & Cyber Leadership Summit will take place on February 12, 2026, at Cavender Nissan of Rockwall, bringing together bold voices, real-world expertise, and actionable insight for women ready to lead in a rapidly changing digital landscape.
Designed for women entrepreneurs, executives, and decision-makers, the summit delivers a full day of high-impact conversations focused on AI adoption, cyber risk, and leadership in high-stakes environments. The event runs from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with check-in beginning at 9:00 a.m.
Headlining the event is TEDx keynote speaker Laura Hennings, whose featured session, “The Women Who Go First,” challenges women to step into decisive leadership instead of waiting for permission. Her message centers on leading boldly in a world shaped by AI, rapid change, and constant risk.
Joining her on stage are two respected industry leaders:
- Sheila Hair, President & CEO of My Computer Guy, presenting “Surviving a Cyber Crisis,” an essential session on preparedness, response planning, and protecting what matters most
- Melanie Padron, AI & Risk Strategist, presenting “AI Safe. AI Scalable,” focused on how women leaders can use AI to grow revenue, increase efficiency, and reduce risk responsibly
Throughout the day, attendees will gain insights into cybersecurity fundamentals every business owner needs, hidden gaps between cyber insurance and real-world exposure, AI strategies for modern entrepreneurs, and practical takeaways they can apply immediately.
Following the conference, guests are invited to a Networking Cocktail Hour from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., which also serves as a Rockwall Area Chamber of Commerce Business After Hours event. The complimentary networking reception includes beverages, appetizers, and meaningful opportunities to connect with fellow professionals and community leaders. Registration is required.
Early Bird tickets are currently available for $50, with regular pricing set at $100. Seating is limited and demand is strong.
“This conference isn’t just an event—it’s a turning point,” organizers shared. “It’s real strategy, real confidence, and real leadership in action. This is the room women leaders want to be in.”
