Women in Leadership are taking centre stage at the next Foundation of Light Business Breakfast, scheduled for Tuesday 15 October.
Hosted at the Beacon of Light, our Business Breakfasts allow like-minded local organisations to meet with the Foundation’s extensive partner network.
October’s event features an inspiring 'Women in Leadership' panel discussion, featuring trailblazing female leaders from across Sunderland.

• Ellen Thinnesen OBE - Chief Executive, Education Partnership North East
• Susan Fulton - Executive Director of People, Culture and Engagement, Gentoo Group

The event forms part of Sunderland Business Festival and is a great opportunity to connect, learn from leading women, and gain insights on leadership and empowering the next generation of leaders.
After the panel discussion, there will be an opportunity to visit our 4G football barn for a demonstration from the female Foundation of Light scholars followed by networking and refreshments.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a female colleague or leader from their business. Don’t miss this valuable chance to network and be inspired!
