TEN actively promotes female entrepreneurship and participation in business through its Women in Business initiative. This is delivered principally through its annual Women in Business conference.
Swindon & Wiltshire Women in Business Conference
The Women in Business event is a once-in-a-year opportunity to learn, connect and share.
The event brings together women in business, entrepreneurs, specialists, start-ups and advisors for a unique day of learning, sharing and moving forward.
With cutting edge keynotes, dynamic workshops, the WiB forum & exhibition (plus plenty of time for networking), the conference has a real buzz and energy to it.
