Socially Shared are proud to present our 4th Annual Women In Business Conference on Wednesday 8th June 2022.
This popular event is back after a two year pause due to Covid-19 and it’s going to be our biggest and best conference yet.
With tickets offering exceptional value at only £65, secure your ticket today!
Where
Our venue for this year’s conference is the Draycote Hotel & Golf Club near Rugby. Megan and the team are very much looking forward to welcoming you to their lovely venue.





The Theme
The theme for this year is ‘Communication’. This topic has always been important but communication channels have literally been a lifeline for many during the pandemic. Businesses have had to pivot and adapt and as a consequence embrace new methods of communication. In this recovery period, we are still incorporating new methods of communication into our everyday activities, but also having to work extra hard to be heard.
What you can expect
The 2022 Conference will consist of four inspirational speakers in the morning, a delicious networking lunch and an opportunity for learning in the afternoon with two interactive workshops. This combination of inspiration, building relationships and providing learning opportunities, truly reflects the ethos of the Socially Shared Business Support Network.
There will be plenty of opportunities for networking, with a welcome drinks reception upon arrival, a mid morning refreshment break, a networking lunch and then closing drinks with the speakers, workshop hosts and sponsors at the end of the day.
All delegates will receive a free gift upon arrival and a complimentary conference programme, to stay informed of the running order for the day. All this is included in the price of the ticket along with free onsite parking, so we are sure you will agree the ticket price offers exceptional value for money.
NEW for 2022… Mini quizzes and games throughout the day with plenty of prizes to be won!
In addition to the main conference programme there will be the chance to make new contacts in the ‘Connections Zone’ where people can highlight particular businesses they are wanting to connect with, and / or needing products or services from. All delegates will be able to advertise their business for free during the event, by displaying their business card on our ‘Building Contacts Wall’.
The Socially Shared Online Bookshop will be showcasing a selection of books by local authors at the event and you may even be able to purchase a signed copy by the authors that are in attendance too!

“Highly recommend! Attended my first conference today & wow it was amazing. The amount of inspirational women I met today and supporters for my charity The Luca Foundation was fantastic.
I am now signed up to Socially Shared too”
Who will be there
The conference is for women in business, employment, education, training or retirement who would like to get together with other local women to celebrate and inspire others.
BBC Journalist, TV and Radio Presenter Joanna Tidman, has agreed to be our MC for the fourth consecutive year! We are thrilled to have her on board and working alongside our social media agents for the day Piece of Cake Marketing.
New for 2022… Young Adult Tickets (Age 16 – 21 years). With a growing number of young adults interested in entrepreneurship and starting their own business, we want to celebrate this by offering a discounted ticket to this audience. It would be great to see some mothers, daughters, aunt and nieces attending the conference this year.
