When we ask network members about the biggest challenges they face as entrepreneurs, one issue consistently rises to the top: staying motivated.Launching a new business is tough—but sustaining focus and enthusiasm through the everyday hurdles and occasional major setbacks can be even harder.
This month’s Guest Speaker is Yinka Martin, a dynamic and high-achieving entrepreneur who spotted a gap in the market, built a global e-commerce brand, and continues to scale both her business and her team. In her talk, Yinka will share the story behind her entrepreneurial journey, the highs and lows along the way, and offer practical insights on how to stay motivated when the going gets tough.
Tea/coffee and sandwiches will be available before the talks and the evening will finish with networking over wine and soft drinks.
