Businesswoman Announce New Event with Glamorous Launch

Thirty Sussex business owners got together for coffee, cupcakes and a glamorous photoshoot to launch The Business Mums’ Conference 2010.

The Business Mums’ Conference 2010 is a collaboration between three successful Sussex business women, Nicky Chisholm of Mums in Biz and The Mumpreneurs’ Networking Club, award winning author and entrepreneur Antonia Chitty and Suzanne Borrell of SMB Events, founder of the ‘BabyExpo’ baby shows.

According to a recent BT survey, one mum in 10 wants to run her own business, and 15 per cent of women have started their own business since having children. Nicky Chisholm says, “We’re running the Business Mums’ Conference to help women get inspired, raise their profile and learn skills to develop their business. At the conference you will meet other mums running their own companies, plus those thinking and planning to start up. You’ll meet people who have attended the Mumpreneurs networking Club, those from the Mums in Biz training events and mums from across the south of England and beyond. It’s a chance to catch up with old friends, meet people you have only ever emailed or chatted to on forums, and to make new business contacts.

Experienced events organiser Suzanne Borrell explains, “This is going to be a fun and glamorous event, but with lots of practical applications for any mums who already own a business or are planning to launch their own enterprise. We’ve chosen the Thistle Hotel as it is a great conference venue in central Brighton, it’s easily accessible for women attending from across the region and will easily accommodate the exhibition element to the event, where a select number of business service providers will have the opportunity to showcase their product or service to a very captive and enthusiastic audience.” 

Antonia Chitty says, “We’ve just launched the site for the event which is well worth a look. Every week we’ll be showcasing a businesswoman from across Sussex and the south east. You can sign up to be the first to hear about the inspiring speakers we are lining up. You’ll also be able to buy tickets for the event which takes place on the 5^th of October and is part of Business Mum Week 2010. Early-bird discounted rates are available now”
