WOMEN’S BUSINESS CLUB saw the annual Women’s Business Conference & Awards take place at the Bath Racecourse. The conference, which took place on Tuesday 8th October 2024, welcomed just under 150 delegates from across the country who all valued the opportunity to learn and celebrate each other.

Women’s Business Club are thrilled to be acknowledging and celebrating women’s professional achievements across the region.

Angela De Souza, Founder and CEO of Women’s Business Club says, “There is nothing quite like celebrating the accomplishments of our businesswomen. The calibre of the entries was extremely high making the judge’s decision really tough. Although only one woman could win in each category, we feel that every single woman who entered is a winner – she is still standing, she is still determined to succeed and she still has hope for the future, a winning attitude indeed.”

Tamsin Broster, the conference director says, “The energy of the room today was electric, women were connecting, collaborating and celebrating each other. This was an event that every woman in that room will remember for a long time”
