Maria Miller MP met with Basingstoke’s Women in Business group. Women in Business Group was formed back in 1992 with a focus on providing a welcoming and friendly environment for business women to meet and network.
Maria and the committee discussed the importance of women in business and how more women can be both supported and encouraged in running their own businesses.
Maria commented, "Women are incredibly effective in running their own businesses. The Women in Business Group shows how diversified small business can be and how more women are benefitting from the flexibility of running their own business. Starting your own business can be hard and the group are very much there to share their experiences and run sessions which can provide advice on a wide range of issues.”
“There is still a huge untapped pool of talent amongst women in Basingstoke and I would strongly encourage them to approach Women in Business.”
