For over a decade, SheInspires has celebrated the voices, achievements, and impact of incredible women across the globe. We’ve witnessed the transformative power of role models, how visibility creates possibility, and how each woman’s story has the power to inspire meaningful change. Now, it’s time to take the next step.
We are proud to announce RISE 2025: The Women’s Leadership Conference, launching on 23rd June at The Midland, Manchester. This event will bring together leaders, pioneers, and aspirational changemakers from all sectors to inspire, connect, and empower the next generation of women leaders.
Why is this important? Because women’s leadership isn’t just about breaking barriers—it’s about building pathways. It’s about sharing knowledge openly, engaging in real conversations, and opening doors to opportunities that might have once seemed out of reach. This year, we’re focusing on creating a space where leadership, resilience, and ambition collide—fuelled by stories that challenge, uplift, and inspire.






RISE 2025 will feature an array of dynamic sessions designed to address a wide range of leadership challenges, including:
- Global Markets & International Expansion: Key insights from international leaders and experts on overcoming barriers to international business growth.
- HR, People & Future Workplaces: How leadership development, career progression, and inclusive workplace practices are shaping the workforce of tomorrow.
- Small Business & Solopreneurs: A look at the women who are the backbone of the UK economy, navigating challenges in entrepreneurship, finance, and innovation.
- Women in Tech: Breaking the digital ceiling in industries like AI, fintech, and beyond, and tackling gender disparities in STEM careers.
- Funding & Finance for Women Entrepreneurs: Practical advice on how women can access funding, manage finances, and scale their businesses.
- Leadership & Resilience: Keynotes and panel discussions focused on the power of resilience in leadership and how to cultivate leadership in a world that demands flexibility and perseverance.
In addition to inspiring keynote speakers, RISE 2025 will host engaging panel discussions, roundtables, breakout power zones, and fireside chats—all designed to bring actionable insights to women from diverse industries. Whether you’re just starting your career or looking to expand your impact, this is a space for every woman to gain new skills, forge valuable connections, and leave empowered to lead.
