Fellow entrepreneurs,
Last week I was at the AWS Amazon Startup event: 100 men, 3 women!!!
I have been in the process of organizing an internet event more accessible to women…..
So come to the Female Internet Heroes event on December 3, 6.30pm-9.30pm at the UBS building in London. The event presents an excellent opportunity for greater participation and visibility in the internet industry for women entrepreneurs, executives and investors.
See for further information:
There is a chance to pitch your company, get a stand, network and listen to interesting speakers.
Back ground info:
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of businesswomen setting up their own internet companies and obtaining prominent positions in the internet industry. However, in the general business and tech media, businesswomen in internet companies are less visible.  This is also the case at awards competitions, venture capital forums and pitching events.
Yet a presence and visibility in these media and events is the key to obtaining market share for companies, receiving start-up seed capital, obtaining further financing and being invited to apply for senior executive positions.  Events and media are also valuable networking and education opportunities.
Thenextwomen and freshideasevents have joined forces to hold in the Inspiring Women Series the Female Internet Heroes event.
Book now!
