Also joining the panel is Lucy Hitchcock, founder of a business that saw viral success in lockdown, and Merlie Calvert, founder of tech startup Farillio.
4 reasons to join our Empowering Women in Business event
1. Share stories and connect with a community
There will be plenty of time to meet with other like-minded business owners and share stories and experiences. We know it can feel isolating at times running a business, so we hope bringing this community together will help you feel inspired and supported.
2. Hear from inspiring women entrepreneurs
Harpreet Kaur, Lucy Hitchcock and Merlie Calvert all have unique insight into what it takes to run a successful business.
Harpreet is going to speak about her inspirational journey as a female entrepreneur, starting with Oh So Yum and going on to win The Apprentice. She said: “I can’t wait to be a guest speaker at the event to talk about what it means to be a female founder in 2022.”
