Be Ready: Panel, Pours & Perspective
Hi everyone! 👋
You're invited to Be Ready: Panel, Pours & Perspective, an evening for women ready to back themselves out loud.
You're already building great things. The question is how you get the world to notice, especially now, when everyone has the same AI and the same tools, and standing out comes down to how you show up as yourself. So we've pulled together four founders who've each cracked that their own way, to talk honestly about how they did it, with real room for your questions over canapés and drinks. Come also meet a room full of women doing the same.
Meet your panel:
Jessie Li — Founder, Relief X Limited
Natalie Chan Verb — Founder & Principal, OWN Academy
Sarah Tong — Co-founder, Big Bang Academy
Sonia Lau — Founder, CREME CLUB
What to expect?
A candid panel with these four founders, plus your questions
Canapés and drinks
A "find your ally" card at the door, so you've got someone to talk to from the start
Real networking with female founders, operators and builders
Come on your own, leave with an ally.
