Enterprise Forum at the House of Lords

In partnership with the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Entrepreneurship, a practical and informative roundtable was held at the Houser of Lords with a trio of superb speakers – Dr Shaheena Janjuha-Jivraj, academic, entrepreneur and family business expert who sits on Lord Heseltine’s task force; Siân Prime, Director of MA Creative and Cultural Entrepreneurship at Goldsmiths; and Joysy John, co-founder of Founders Fit.

We also heard excellent contributions from Pauline Crawford, founder of Corporate Heart, US entreprenologist Dr Jim Omps and business leader and engineer Mike Samuel.

Discussion centred on the forthcoming submission to the EU Consultation on Entrepreneurship, to which Pink Shoe Club is jointly contributing alongside the APPGE. More on this soon....

Business Mentoring at Berg Manchester

For the second of our Business Mentoring events, Pink Shoe Club was hosted by Alison Loveday, managing partner of Berg – the imaginative law firm.

Una McBride welcomed guests on behalf of Pink Shoe to a mentoring Masterclass and reception at Berg's central Manchester offices. The Berg team looked after guests brilliantly and could not have made everyone feel more welcome.

The class itself was engaging and absorbing, which is exactly what we've come to expect from Dinah Bennett OBE, a ‘pracademic’ and co-founder of ICE, the International Consultancy for Entrepreneurship & Enterprise.

Huge thanks to all at Berg and especially Beverly Reilly.

Out and about in London and Liverpool

Pink Shoe members get invited to all sorts of fabulous events and places. 


Of late amongst these lovely invitations we’ve been lucky to be at the unveiling of the statue to Kitty Wilkinson.
