I currently have the brilliant opportunity of taking part in the Women in Exhibitions mentorship scheme as both a mentor and a mentee. I chose Simon Foster to be my mentor and what a great choice. His extensive knowledge and support has helped to not only progress Broadway Events, but me as a business leader. Simon has a wealth of experience in the exhibition sector and I am very lucky that I get to learn from his experiences.

Managing Director, Broadway Events
I have been fortunate to take part in the Layered Development Training and Mentoring Scheme with Women in Exhibitions. The programme has given me the insight and knowledge to develop myself professionally and put the training into practice. The training has really helped with my mentoring sessions, where I have been able to see and report on my progress as well work to my strengths and my teams.

I cannot recommend the Women In Exhibitions initiative highly enough - between my personalised mentoring sessions and the access to training I have received, I have found it to be in invaluable experience.
