Virtual Programming: Sophia Amoruso on business innovation now

A master at creating compelling virtual engagements and resources, Amoruso was sought-out for Ad Age Remotely to discuss her plans to pull off a large-scale virtual Girlboss rally, as well as for a virtual conversation on Maria Menounos' Better Together on "How Small Businesses Can Cope During Covid-19," and on Cheddar to discuss her new meditation guides and running a business from home. As part of her virtual Girlboss Rally, Amoruso and her team created a series of tangible, creative, and instantly implementable e-guides and virtual resources on making bold professionals and personal choices in these challenging times.
