​Demystifying Entrepreneurial Opportunities

​We are excited to offer this one-day workshop in partnership with London Business School to give you a learning opportunity with some of the UK's leading voices in entrepreneurship and innovation.

​Who should attend

​This workshop is for Female Founders Rise members in the early stages of building their company - Early stage businesses with some traction/ revenue but less than £300K yearly revenue or less than £300K in funding.

​Why attend

​The “Uncovering Entrepreneurial Opportunities” workshop will explore two key topics pertinent to uncovering and assessing entrepreneurial opportunities that have the potential to grow.

​As famed venture capital investor Bill Egan once said, “If you are fundamentally in a lousy business, you won’t get the kind of results you would in a good business. All businesses aren’t created equal.”

​You will return to your business with a new set of tools and a targeted, prioritized action plan in hand, ready for implementation in your own business. And a whole load of new connections to join you on your entrepreneurship journey.
