History

2024

In 2024, the National Women’s Enterprise Week Accelerator Programme was sponsored by Dorsett Hospitality International. It offered female founders access to exclusive resources and mentorship to jumpstart their business ideas, before pitching their vision to a panel of venture capitalists and angel investors. Akshata Murty - entrepreneur and wife of Rishi Sunak - was the leading panel judge.
