FINAL CALL FOR ATTENDEES – WOMEN’S BUSINESS CONFERENCE & AWARDS 2024

Posted: 2nd October 2024

Scotland Women’s Business Conference & Awards: Last Chance to Join the Premier Event for Female Business Leaders in Scotland

Edinburgh, Scotland – As the clock ticks down, the Scotland Women’s Business Conference & Awards 2024 is approaching rapidly, taking place on October 29th at the prestigious Edinburgh Royal College of Physicians. This is the final call for ambitious professional women and companies eager to invest in the potential of their female leaders to register and be part of a day dedicated to growth, empowerment, and connection.

In recent years, Scotland has seen an inspiring rise in female entrepreneurship. According to the Rose Review, the number of women starting their own businesses is growing at over 10% annually, with women now accounting for over 35% of all entrepreneurs in the UK. However, while progress is promising, Scottish women continue to face unique barriers in accessing funding, scaling their businesses, and breaking through in male-dominated industries. That’s where events like the Women’s Business Conference & Awards come in – providing critical support, mentorship, and networking for women looking to thrive in the modern business landscape.

This highly anticipated conference is a must-attend event for women looking to elevate their careers, connect with like-minded professionals, and gain valuable insights from industry leaders. The day will feature inspiring speakers, skill-building workshops, and strategic networking opportunities that can help fuel business growth.
