Inaugural Female Entrepreneur Conference
The inaugural Female Entrepreneur Conference has been announced by Women In Business and the Causeway Enterprise Agency.
The Conference is described as an opportunity for networking and learning, with thought-provoking insights, and honest advice to help companies grow and thrive.
The conference will be hosted by Sarah Travers, who will facilitate a panel of six successful local female entrepreneurs sharing their stories of success.
The three keynote speakers include:
• Petra Wetzel, Founder and Managing Director of WEST Brewery in Glasgow. The single mum from Glasgow brewed up a £10 million fortune.
• Dr Leah Totten, winner of the BBC TV series The Apprentice 2013, and subsequently opened two cosmetic skin clinics with her business partner Lord Alan Sugar.
• Tina McKenzie, European Ambassador for Female Enterprise Day, and Director for Staffline Group Ireland, an island-wide Employment Services and Recruitment company.
Networking coaches leaving from Belfast (stopping in Ballymena), and Coleraine will allow attendees to start valuable networking before they arrive.
