Calling all Female Entrepreneurs….
Celebrate National Women’s Enterprise Day with Local Enterprise Office Kildare in this talk-show style event.
Kildare County Council’s Local Enterprise Office, in association with County Kildare Chamber and Network Ireland Kildare Branch, is proud to launch Kildare’s National Women's Enterprise Day, a pivotal event dedicated to empowering female entrepreneurs.
Scheduled for 17th October 2024, this year's theme, "Girls Just Wanna Have Funds!"focuses on equipping women with the knowledge and resources they need to successfully secure funding or investment to start or scale their businesses.
The Positive Economist Susan Hayes will MC and lead challenging conversations with female entrepreneurs who have successfully secured significant investment into their companies. And their stories tell of the highs and the challenges associated with onboarding investment.
Some of the speakers joining the stage include:
- Chupi Sweetman, owner of Chupi. This Irish heirloom jewellery brand raised €3.75 million in new equity and debt investment in 2023 to fuel its ambitious growth plans for Ireland and the UK.
- Denise McQuaid, Investment Director of Awaken Angels. Denise is a co-founder of AwakenHub & AwakenAngels, where she and her fellow co-founders have built a strong community of women founders and angel investors across the island of Ireland. As Director of Investor Relations for AwakenAngels, Denise spearheads the development of a community comprising both novice and seasoned angel investors, dedicated to investing in women-led businesses across the island of Ireland.
Led and funded by Local Enterprise Office Kildare, Kildare County Council are delighted that this event will be supported in collaboration with County Kildare Chamber and Network Ireland Kildare Branch.
Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur, a budding business owner, or someone interested in supporting this vital cause, we encourage you to join us for an uplifting evening of inspiration, learning and networking…..and with some surprises thrown in!
