It is essential that we generate a real buzz around entrepreneurial businesses and showcase the successes that are achievable by those who possess determination and motivation to succeed - tying in with the theme of this year’s Dinner ‘Aiming High’.
Being an Asian female entrepreneur, I am keen to highlight how I have aimed high in my career and hope to inspire Asian Businesses on the night especially as this is one ABDN’s key objectives. It is fantastic to see that Yorkshire businesses have a support network like ABDN to positively influence them in what is a very tough climate. I am also looking forward to personally speaking to business owners to understand their challenges and how they have overcome what's been a very turbulent climate recently."
