The Big Leap for women scaling up their business
Are you a businesswoman ready to take her business to the next level?
Did you know that :-
“The UK is the start-up capital of Europe, attracting more venture capital than any other European country, yet only one in three UK entrepreneurs is female. In comparison with 15% of women in Canada, almost 11% of women in the US, and over 9% of women in Australia and the Netherlands, only 5.6% of UK women run their own companies.”
The Rose Report March 2019
As a Bank, NatWest recognise that female entrepreneurs want
- Access to business support,
skills and training - Mentoring
- Networking opportunities
- Access to finance
“As an individual I have undergone the Bank’s accredited programme which is recognised by Chartered Banker and certified by Everywoman.
Together with a team of leading women in business, we have put together this event with quality speakers who will deliver an engaging and informative morning aimed at women who are looking to take their business to the next level.”

NatWest Bank, with Sandra Murphy and Karen Burge have collaborated to bring you a morning of speakers looking at various aspects you consider when making ‘the big leap’.
This free event will be packed with value, information and insights from experts in sales, HR, funding, mindset and PR.
“The advancement of female entrepreneurs is a £250bn opportunity for the UK economy. Access to funding, risk aversion, primary care responsibilities and perception of skills are among the barriers female entrepreneurs need to overcome. “The Rose Report March 2019”
Our speakers are:
Sandra Murphy
Sandra is a business adviser with over 25 years experience of setting up, running or working with SMEs. Her two pet hates are hard sales and poor sales simply because she believes that neither deliver a positive customer experience. Her presentation will focus on how to avoid both and – more importantly – look at the alternatives.
