Aspire to Inspire in Leeds and Sheffield

Elizabeth Jackson, Chief Executive of Directorbank, the UK’s leading private equity recruitment specialist will be inspiring young leaders and business people from Leeds and beyond at the Aspire to Inspire event on 30th September.

Guests who attend this event will also hear from other inspiring speakers including representatives from The Aspire Fund, Forward Ladies and SYIF.

We are working in partnership with The Aspire Fund Manager, Capital for Enterprise Ltd, and Forward Ladies to promote the fund amongst female entrepreneurs in the region.

The Aspire Fund was established with the objective of increasing the number of successful women- led businesses in the UK. The Fund is able to make equity investments of between £100k and £1m, on a co-investment basis, in order to strengthen business and underpin growth.

A key element of the fund is to seek to improve the linkage between those providing funding and those providing investment readiness support; which is where we fit in.

We are honoured to be working with so many proactive and successful businesswomen. We hope that many women-led businesses will join us at the event and hear about how Elizabeth built a successful business, leading to a secondary buy-out of Directorbank.

This event is kindly being hosted by DLA Piper. We do hope that you will be able to join us and if not then we are also running a similar event in Sheffield on the 5th October. To reserve your place visit: www.forwardladies.com/networking-events
