Looking for professional growth opportunities?
Absolutely!
Insights, upskilling, and networking for career professionals.
Join us (virtually) in October at the 3rd edition of Women in Business Expo.
Within the past years, we’ve seen a shift in the search for a more fulfilling career - one that provides the benefits, support, and growth opportunities for women in leadership.
Women/women-identifying professionals want a seat at the table. Actually, we want to lead the discussions at the table.
87% of global mid-market companies have at least one, if any, woman in a senior management role in 2020 (Grant Thornton, Women in Business 2020: Putting the Blueprint into Action (2020): p. 4.) One woman in a senior management role? We call ‘glass ceiling’. We belong in all places where decisions are made - and that includes boardrooms, and in executive leadership roles.
Why attend?
Progress in your career
Speak to employers who are actively recruiting across all levels, including higher management and senior leadership roles. Attend roundtable discussions with companies hiring diverse talent.
Upskill and reskill
Meet 1-on-1 with companies thriving through the pandemic to safeguard your future, develop your skill set or find your next career move.
Be inspired
Hear from successful female pioneers who’ve moved through the corporate ladder to become executives, directors, and C-Suite leaders. Gain insight from their personal stories and advice.
Break your barriers
Mindset or the patriarchy? Potentially a mix of both. Break through your limiting beliefs and the confidence gap with the tools to achieve your professional goals, with others striving to do the same.

Synopsis: Led by Grazia’s Rebecca Holman, Magic Radio’s Kaylee Golding and Bauer’s Simone Thomas, this roundtable will discuss the cognitive overload women may face trying to juggle work and personal life, returning to work after maternity leave or starting a new job in the industry – and what Bauer and other companies have done to make this as easy as possible. The discussion will focus particularly on the past year and the impact Covid/working from home/hybrid working has had on females and working parents, now and in the future.
