Maven Space is…
A supportive sisterhood.
Our members look out for each other. Cheer each other on. Inspire each other. Empowered by empathy and a sense of belonging, our members are more likely to take bold action and discover new opportunities.

A wildly diverse tapestry of women.
Our doors are wide open to ambitious women of all ages, economic and ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Every individual is valued for their unique qualities, and is a vital thread in a larger tapestry that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Our Story
Inspiring Women
“I started Indy Maven because my co-founder and I saw (and experienced) a gap in the market. There were no major lifestyle outlets in Indianapolis creating content with women in mind. Maven Space was born out of a similar need—to create a community where women go to get the resources, support, and inspiration to do truly amazing things.
I know what it’s like to feel disconnected and that you’re working on an island from day to day. Our Indy Maven members were feeling it too. Now we’ve made this vision come to life, bringing this community of women together in the heart of downtown Indianapolis.”
