July's First Friday was as productive and popular as ever!
Great conversations and an excellent mix of professionals, we also had Association of Scottish Business Women ASB President Lyndsey Greer Phillips as special guest, couldn't be more delighted! Lot's of information, contacts and knowledge was exchanged and and we got some great feedback " I feel revived" "Wow what a good First Friday today" Remember First Friday is an event that is open to guests - if you'd like to come along please get in touch on our contacts page.

We're getting good at this virtual networking thing! Another fantastic networking session with plenty of engaging conversations!
Breakout rooms are proving popular - helping us to mingle with new contacts and make valuable connections. Thanks to all our participants for making First Friday such a terrific event. What a 'mug shot!' As we promised we got together for a third Friday in place of our First Friday that got hijacked by the tech gremlins!
Many interesting conversations about current business challenges and things we are learning in these exceptional times. Everyone managed to be heard and promote their business, we had breakout rooms for discussions and 'cards exchanged' via the chat box - we know how to adapt! It was great to ahve over 20 women on 1 call. We have many webinars coming up, and our next networking event open to Members and non-Members is June's First Friday. The new format was very popular so we'll continue with this for now but appreciate all the feedback from our members. Thanks to the ladies who attended our first virtual First Friday!
Unfortunately, technology got the better of us and not everyone who booked could attend but we managed to improvise with those that could and had a great time. If anything we had a trial run! So as not to disappoint we quickly rescheduled to a Third Friday as an exception and a special edition of our signature networking event was promptly planned to make it up to you. See the next blog post! A fabulous March First Friday! A wonderful buzz today, spring was definitely in the air!!
Always great to see all our ladies and even lovelier to welcome guests! #eachforequal #womensupportingwomen First Fridays are our only event open to guests.
