The Philosophy

_________________________________________________________________________

Here at The Next Women we are often asked to facilitate meetings amongst female business heroes and to connect business leaders.  After all, with every business and every woman comes a different story and a different experience.

This got us thinking..

Fine wine, good food, an inspirational lady, a group of connected
women and men, and finally that light bulb moment:

A series of ‘Kitchen Table Dinners’

A five course meal in the intimate settings of our very own kitchen in Notting Hill, great food, and women with original companies and ideas.

Events

The NextWomen Kitchen Dinners are not about looking up to people like in a mentor/mentee relationship, rather they are about peer-to-peer meetings among entrepreneurs, CEOs and investors alike, with fine wine, good food and a chance to dress up
