Ideas, insights and practical actions you can take back into your business. 

From  Hemina  you'll

Learn why crypto assets should form a part of your portfolio and how to get started.

	From Fiona  you'll	Attendees will leave with a different way of thinking about menstrual health: not as something to deal with when it becomes a problem, but as something they can actively prepare for.  They’ll understand where they are on their own menstrual health timeline, which signals are worth noticing, and how to start building a personal toolkit that evolves with them.  Most importantly, they’ll recognise that protecting their own capacity, energy and wellbeing is part of protecting their business — and that preparation gives them more choices when change comes.
	From Rebecca you'll	Confidence in managing money without feeling overwhelmed. A clear understanding of income sources and how to maximise revenue. Practical methods for reviewing and reducing expenditure. A structured cashflow planning framework for personal or business finances. Techniques for monitoring cashflow and managing finances weekly.
	From Bhavya you'll	A practical framework to navigate financial uncertainty with more clarity and confidence -Greater awareness of the mindset patterns that drive hesitation, scarcity, and self-doubt in business  Tools to make bolder decisions around money, pricing, investment, and growth -A stronger sense of self-trust when leading through uncertainty and change -A fresh perspective on financial success as both a strategy and a mindset.

AND THERE’S MORE…

A productive business day? Absolutely.

Who said finance couldn’t be fun?

LIVE MUSIC & LUNCHTIME NETWORKING

SIMONE LISA KENNEDY

Music runs through Simone Lisa Kennedy’s family. Her father, Errol Kennedy, co-founded the hugely successful British soul group Imagination, while her aunt is singer and entertainer Grace Kennedy.

Growing up surrounded by music and performance, Simone began singing, acting and dancing from an early age, with television appearances including Erasmus Microman and a Walls ice cream advertisement.

After 14 years living in Spain, Simone is now back in the UK, recording new material and performing regularly.

We’re delighted that Simone will be bringing her warmth, talent and musical sparkle to Evolution, performing live during our lunchtime networking.

NETWORKING BINGO — PURPOSEFUL CONNECTIONS WITH A TWIST

Where Conversations Spark Connections — and There’s a Prize!

This isn’t networking as you know it.

Networking Bingo is a signature 1230 TWC experience designed to get the room moving, conversations flowing, and connections happening naturally — all in a structured, supportive and genuinely enjoyable way.

Instead of standing awkwardly, wondering who to speak to next, you’ll take part in a guided activity that encourages you to meet a variety of attendees, speakers and exhibitors throughout the day. It’s fun, fast-moving and incredibly effective for building visibility and confidence.

Through Networking Bingo, you’ll:

• Start conversations quickly and comfortably

• Meet businesswomen you may not otherwise connect with

• Discover new collaborations and opportunities

• Increase your confidence in a lively, welcoming environment

• Add a spark of energy and enjoyment to your networking experience

• And yes — there’s a prize too.

  Because at 1230 TWC, networking is about more than exchanging cards. It’s about creating real conversations that lead to meaningful business relationships — with a little fun along the way.

What you’ll need:

• Business cards and/or flyers

• Notebook and pen/pencil
