Scottish Mumpreneur Network: The Scottish Mumprenuer Network celebrates it 1st birthday in style!

The Scottish Mumprenuer Network celebrated their 1st Birthday in style on Sat 2nd Oct 2010, at Malmaison Hotel Glasgow. With 20 members in attendance they had a chance to network, listen to 2 very inspiring speakers and enjoy a lovely 3 course meal.

Of course the Mumpreneurs were sure to check out the cocktail bar before the proceedings got under way.

We are delighted that Gemma from Glamour Eyes came along to do mini manicures in aid of Cash for Kids. The Scottish Mumpreneur Network had been raising money for cash for kids in an online raffle - which saw a total of £257.96 being handed over to cash for kids.

The room was decorated beautifully thanks to http://www.divinepartyknights.com/ , http://www.beautifullywrapped.com/ , www.i-craft.co.uk, www.seasonaldecorations.co.uk,

The wonderful Marian from www.marianmcneilphotography.co.uk took photo's on the night.

Gillian Dick from http://www.findmeglasgow.com/ told us why she set up her own business and shared some of her top tips to fellow entrepreneurs.
Gillian is a real inspiration to any woman in business.

Morag Malloy from Fission Creative http://www.fissionc.com/ then took the floor to tell us about her journey into being a mumpreneur. Morag had the audience nodding their heads as she described situations of how she manages business with small children to care for. It was great to laugh out loud at some of the things that we ALL do as mumpreneurs.
