“Being invited to part of the f:Entrepreneur top 100 was an honour; not just for the fabulous event at the House of Lords but for the ongoing support, events and sense of community that followed. It has given me the confidence to keep building my business and to feel that, being part of this cohort of women founders, I am not alone on this entrepreneurial journey.”

"f:Entrepreneur will undoubtedly help you to shine, raise your profile, grow your following, get you PR that’s really worth having and campaign for things that are close to your heart and I can't recommend them enough. It has the power and influence to allow you to grow not just as an individual but also as globally recognised leader in your field."

"Being part of the f:Entrepreneur community has opened up so many amazing opportunities. As well as joining a wonderfully inspiring community of remarkable women who are contributing to remarkable changes in our country and communities, it’s almost been really instrumental in building my confidence, profile and business. Without the f:Entrepreneur, I doubt I’d have been invited to Downing Street, been awarded the Rising Star award in my industry or been included on the Northern Power Women Futures list."

"Being part of f:Entrepreneur for 2020 has been fantastic so far. Not only have I met some really driven and diverse female business owners, but the support in the group has been fantastic. It’s a positive group which has been especially important during these challenging few months and having events online means we can still be connected. I’d recommend anyone who runs a business and supports their wider community to apply - it sets you apart from the crowd and you won’t look back."

"I’ve really enjoy being part of the f:Entrepreneur community. I love the community events and meeting new and inspiring business owners."

"Being part of this community not only creates opportunities for learning, but for connecting with a creative, fun and supportive group of inspiring and friendly women."

"It is such a pleasure and honour to be part of the #ialso community. The inspirational stories, and group support are so helpful and when you are having a bad day it is great to see their posts. It is useful to be able to put a post out and chat through issues with people, particularly during lockdown when it has been really difficult. It may not have been the year we expected in 2020 but being part of this community has made it a whole lot better."

"I was truly honoured to be one of the #ialso100 in 2020. Not only was I invited to the House of Lords to celebrate, I got to connect with 99 amazing fellow female business owners around the UK. Volunteering is one of my core values so it’s fantastic that this campaign is spotlighting all the great work that is done alongside our businesses. I’ve recently connected with the 2020 ladies and look forward to building on this network of inspiring women in business."

"Being part of the f:Entrepreneur’s community has given me a wonderful opportunity to learn, make new connections, and raise my own brand profile. Grateful to be amongst inspirational women who are doing amazing things and inspire me believe it’s all possible!"

"f:Entrepreneur has been a fantastic community of like-minded business leaders and I am so please to be a part of it. I have thoroughly enjoyed the events that the team has organised. They have been honest, supportive and have helped me develop my skills as a business owner. Thanks Michelle and Karen!"

"It’s an honour and a delight to be part of f:Entrepreneur’s #ialso 100 community. It gives me the best of both worlds: the opportunity to get to know some amazing entrepreneurial women AND invitations to events which are exclusive to #ialso 100 members."

"I was absolutely thrilled to have been named as one of the #ialso100 class of 2020. It has linked me with 100's of brilliant entrepreneurial business women - some of whom I am already collaborating with. The events provide multiple opportunities to get to know one another and share ideas and knowledge of one another's businesses. And the sharing of our stories, showcasing of the 100 and general help and support from the f:Entrepreneur team is just amazing. I strongly recommend anyone considering applying for 2021 to do so - it's a great supportive group."

"I have been fortunate to be a part of the amazing FE community since 2020. Besides the recognition and achievement of making it to the Top 100 #ialso list, for me it has been a safe space where everyone is genuinely so supportive of each other. I often struggled to fit myself into any specific award category but now I am proud to say that my category is that I am an #ialso. And I am sure this thought resonates with thousands of women across the country thus making campaigns like #ialso significant and path breaking."
