Our Mission

Tomorrow’s Women TODAY provides an unparalleled network for women who have been identified within their profession as future leaders. TWT establishes repeated opportunities to share ideas, learn from top-tier industry leaders, and further enrich the future business in the Greater Boston Community.

How We Started

Powered by women. Empowered by women.

After an event held by the Massachusetts Women’s Forum, Founder Lauren Pimpare recognized the need to create a supportive network for emerging female leaders in Boston’s public and private sectors. She found four other women who shared her vision, and together they formed Tomorrow’s Women TODAY.

The premise of the network was simple: to meet the professional needs of women who wanted a deeper connection with other like-minded leaders across their community. By strengthening these ties, women could better assist each other in growing their knowledge base, finding resources, and building their leadership skills in current and future positions. TWT achieves this aim through supportive networking, access to prominent leaders, and by hosting events in partnership with corporations and senior business executives throughout Boston.

Our Leadership

Founders and Board of Directors

Lauren Gill Pimpare
President & Founder


Lauren Gill Pimpare founded Tomorrow’s Women TODAY in 2009. Tomorrow’s Women TODAY is primarily an invite-only organization comprised of approximately 100 emerging women who have been identified by leaders in the community. As Founder and President of this not-for-profit, Lauren is deeply committed to ensure that this intimate group of women are provided with a safe and supportive network, and have opportunities to learn from industry leaders whose stories and experiences educate and inspire.  During this unprecedented time of global crisis, the intuition and voices of women, many of whom are unrepresented and unheard, need to find a collective vehicle through which their power can be mobilized.  Lauren’s vision for Tomorrow’s Women TODAY is to establish a pipeline of female leaders and to ensure that these emerging leaders are at the table with established leaders to learn how to carry the torch forward.

Lauren is responsible for the organizations’ strategic planning, event planning, outreach and communications. Before founding this non-profit, Lauren previously worked as a healthcare professional for over thirteen years. She holds a Master’s Degree in Business/Healthcare Administration.

Lauren’s commitment to women does not end with her members. Lauren has worked hard to ensure that every year her organization participates in a “Pay it Forward” activity. These activities have included organizing children’s clothing at “Pass it On,” collecting suits for “Year Up” or “Dress for Success,” ice cream socials for patients undergoing cancer treatment, and hosting an educational event with Crittenton Women’s Union. Lauren has created a Fellowship Program within Tomorrow’s Women TODAY for younger female leaders. In collaboration with a local Boston University student, she has also established a Student Membership and Post-Graduate Student Membership within the group to provide emerging college students and post-grads with opportunities to learn real-world networking skills and provide them with mentors.

Lauren has successfully launched a second not-for-profit focused on Executive female leaders called, The Boston Women’s Leadership Council.
