Some brands you simply grow up with. McDonald’s is one of them. A name that feels familiar, trusted, and woven into everyday life. But behind every restaurant is an entrepreneur who made it their own.

Women in franchising is an invite-only event co-hosted by McDonald's and the female factor for ambitious women ready to explore that possibility for themselves — how to turn leadership experience into business ownership with one of the world’s most iconic brands.
