In the current challenging economic climate women are proving that they can lead the way in business, but success requires more than just a good idea and hard work. Anyone who has ever started a business, or for those working hard to develop and grow an existing one, will know just how much of a struggle it can be without relevant information, good skills and excellent support. The focus of the Headz Up Business event on 8th March, will be to bring together the regions women business owners, corporates, entrepreneurs, professionals, leading educators to provide and encourage business enterprise by successful women in business sharing their experience, knowledge and creating an environment for opportunities to network with key women decision makers.
