Who We Are

FMWF was formed in 2001 to help as many women as possible reach the very highest ranks in British business and to support them once they get there with the most relevant news and features coverage, advice and networking opportunities.

The forum is intended to provide interesting and useful opportunities for women at the very top of their respective professions to make new contacts, exchange ideas and forge business alliances.

Unlike single sector groups, the Financial Mail Women’s Forum will offer its membership the distinction of drawing together senior women from all parts of industry and commerce, from the City and public service, the professions, politics and e-commerce.

As a newspaper with a strong female readership, Financial Mail hopes this initiative will help more talented women reach the very top of British business.

We want our newly designed site to work for you and will be working flat out to keep you up to date, informed and entertained. We want to provide the news, views and information that you’ll find most useful and entertaining.

And the best way for us to to do that is if you to let us know when we get it right and when we don’t. You can email us at women@financialmail.co.uk. We look forward to hearing from you.
