Coffee Notes, Noteworthy Networking

Welcome to Coffee Notes

Brought to you by Female Founder UK

Coffee Notes is a knowledge-led professional experience, designed for women navigating modern working life, not a traditional networking event.

Delivered by Female Founder UK, the official UK trademark brand supporting founders, entrepreneurs, women in business, and women in careers. Coffee Notes reflects our commitment to supporting women at every stage of their professional journey. FFUK is an everywoman brand for the modern era, bringing together work, life, and community to support both personal and professional growth.

More Than Networking

Coffee Notes is open to all women, whether you are building a business, progressing in your career, returning to work, or seeking new professional networks. Our ethos of relaxed ambition underpins every event removing pressure, hierarchy, and performative networking.

Each Coffee Notes session is intentionally designed to offer:

• Knowledge-led discussion and curated insight

• Practical learning you can apply to your work or business

• Meaningful connection, without the pressure to pitch

• Confidence-building conversations in a safe, nurturing environment

This is a space where women can connect authentically, exchange ideas, and grow at their own pace.

A Professional Development Opportunity

Coffee Notes also provides a valuable entry-level CPD opportunity. It is ideal for individuals seeking to build confidence, expand their professional network, and develop their voice, as well as for organisations who want to support female employees with accessible professional development.

Employers are encouraged to attend with their female team members to:

• Support confidence and visibility

• Encourage personal and professional growth

• Invest in learning-led networking

• Champion women in a supportive, values-led environment

Supporting Female-Founded Spaces

At FFUK, we are committed to supporting female ventures. Wherever possible, our Events & Experiences are hosted within female-founded businesses, ensuring our values are reflected not only in what we deliver, but where we deliver it.

We are delighted to host Coffee Notes at Fourteen Drops, a beautifully curated venue nestled just off Yarm High Street a space that embodies creativity, warmth, and community founded by Alex McLain.
