Description

Join our evening gathering including nibbles, music, discussion and talks from local female entrepreneurs around enterprise, environment and inclusion this International Women’s Day. 

We are building a greener and more inclusive economy here in Dunoon. Together, we can explore how we can make business support work better for entrepreneurial women setting up or running businesses in Dunoon. In particular, how this could work better for women dealing with care, health and rural challenges.

Hosted by Janis Marshall Reilly from Third Sector Interface and Hannah Clinch of Dunoon Goes POP, there will be opportunities for conversation on these topics and talks by three local female entrepreneurs. 

Our speakers:

  • Pauline Beutyman from Sea Drift Pottery
  • Claire Segeren from What Have We Dunoon
  • Lyndsey H Greer from Calma Shore 

These enterprising women will talk about their experience of developing a business in Dunoon and will share their reflections on how their business can contribute to a NetZero economy here in Dunoon.

Our evening gathering is for people who run businesses or want to support the growth of a more sustainable and inclusive economy.

Doors open at 7pm and the event will conclude around 10pm.

Childcare support at the venue can be provided. If need help please let us know in advance. Email hannah@tacit-tacit.co.uk
