One of the speakers, Martha Lane Fox, is a passionate advocate of women in business and is best known as a founder of lastminute.com. More recently she launched the soho karaoke venture, Lucky Voice, and is a non-executive member of Channel 4’s management board as well as a non-executive director of Marks & Spencer.

Brand building

Learn from those who have built the leading brands in their industry sectors:

• Dame Mary Perkins – co-founder, Specsavers

Mary began Specsavers in her spare bedroom in 1984. Fast forward to 2007, the privately owned company has over 900 stores internationally, employs nearly 15,000 (of which 10,000 are women) and turns over £700 million.

• Sharon Hilditch – founder, Crystal Clear International

Health issues as a youngster meant Sharon left school with no qualifications to become a beautician. Her unbreakable resolve enabled her to launch an international skin care range with an £8,000 loan which she has transformed into annual sales of £10 million. Crystal Clear counts Madonna, Victoria Beckham and Cindy Crawford amongst its fans.
