LOOKING FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES?
ABSOLUTELY!


Insights, upskilling, and networking for career professionals.

Join us, 2-3 October 2024 at the 5th edition of Karren Brady’s Women in Business & Tech Expo.

Within the past few years, we’ve seen a shift in the search for a more fulfilling career – one that provides the benefits, support, flexibility and growth opportunities for women in leadership. 

Women/women-identifying professionals want a seat at the table. Actually, we want to lead the discussions at the table.

The proportion of mid-market companies with at least one woman in senior management around the world has held steady at 87%. (Grant Thornton, Women in Business 2020: Putting the Blueprint into Action (2020.) Held steady? One woman in a senior management role?  We call ‘glass ceiling’. We belong in all places where decisions are made – and that includes boardrooms, and in executive leadership roles.

  • There was a huge buzz in the aisles and the theatres were packed out. When I first saw the line-up of fantastic speakers and sponsors, I knew I had to be involved. They’re working hard to inspire and empower their female workforce, and it’s just so inspiring to be a part of.”

    Sara Davies MBE, Founder of Crafter's Companion & Investor on Dragon's Den

  • I wanted to attend Women in Business Expo as an opportunity to network with large employers. It worked tremendously well, and I now have a number of very large companies actively considering vacant roles for me
