Event Description
THE ATHENA NETWORK SOUTH WALES GROUP MEETING DETAILS
Welcome to the Athena South Wales women’s networking group meeting page.
If you are a business woman in South Wales, Swansea, Cardiff, South Gower, Carmarthenshire, Cwmdu, Mumbles, Neath, Port Talbot (and surrounding areas) I know that you will want to find out more before you attend one of our meetings so I’ve provided meeting dates and times as well as a list of current members and their professions.
Athena South Wales is a popular, dynamic, and vibrant women’s networking group where you can be assured of excellent business connections. Meet local businesswomen and step out of the isolation so many female entrepreneurs can feel.
The South Wales members pride themselves on the strategic connections that they have created, collaborating with each other to create new projects and services.
This group meets on the 1st Tuesday of the month from 12 – 2 pm (excluding August & December). Below you’ll find details of our current members and their professions, including how you can get in touch with them.
