This isn't just a celebration; it's the start of our year-long celebration of ten years of impact. It’s a moment to honour the incredible women, the founders, leaders, and innovators, who have been central to our story and to the economic and social fabric of Barking and Dagenham.

Come and connect with the people who have shaped our past and those who are building our future. Hear their stories of resilience, growth, and success, and join the conversation about what the next ten years of enterprise and empowerment will look like.

Let’s celebrate a decade of community transformation and kick off the next chapter, together. What to expect from the morning.

Networking. Connect with fellow entrepreneurs, BEC tenants, alumni, local business leaders, and partners over a complimentary breakfast.
