When I attend a Business Event, I am often in the minority; sadly business seems still to be associated with being male.

I know this is incorrect because research by NatWest showed that Female entrepreneurs contributed £3.51bn to the UK economy in 2015 alone.

The research shows just how much female entrepreneurs contribute to the UK. The launch of over 100,000 new businesses by women in 2015 alone resulted in a sizeable boost to the UK economy.

The sheer contribution made by women shows the importance of supporting aspiring female entrepreneurs to take the first step.

I have the perfect opportunity for us women to show that they mean business, I will be attending the Sage Summit at the Excel London on the 5-6^th April, and I encourage you to join me.

Enlightened Sage have organised for British businesswoman, philanthropist, and public servant Martha Lane Fox CBE to provide a keynote, she never fails to inspire.

Plus you’ll get to experience new technology designed to support your business growth. Get product training, advice, and inspiration from the best and the brightest experts in their field & connect with and get inspired by some of the most innovative and interesting British entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and big thinkers.

I’d love to see some of my fellow Women in Business at the event, it would be great if the audience was a 50/50 split of male and female business people.  The 5^th April is for Sage Partners and Accountants only and the 6^th of April is open to all.

Otherwise, if you can’t make, do keep up with my social media feeds, I shall we tweeting, instagramming and sharing my insights throughout the 2 days.

To create another transformational opportunity to work on your business and work on yourself too, I have crafted the Happenista Women in Business Retreat, coming up in 16/17^th September, check it out
