Important Info

We will be running three other regional Conferences in Birmingham, Bradford & Belfast over Sep & Oct, with a very similar agenda. The aim is to deliver our events near to where our community are based, and ensure that we enable as many people to attend as possible. If you are unable to make this date, please consider attending our other conferences taking place in the other three locations.

Feeling very motivated and inspired after the Meat Business Women conference. It was such a positive and engaging session and I met so many inspiring women in the industry!
