THE CONVERSATION
Female entrepreneurs are individual women or groups who run, initiate, organise or operate a business enterprise across various industries. Despite the UK being the start-up capital of Europe according to Companies House (2025) only 19.1% of businesses are currently owned by women and this figure continues to drop. This conversation will cover the opportunities, challenges, barriers faced by our panellists and female entrepreneurs along with the support available and how we can better support our female peers to make that initial start up move.
