It was standing room only for the launch of the first Asian Founders community meet, a new network to support and champions entrepreneurs and business owners.
Award-winning entrepreneurs and founders shared their time and expertise with a packed audience at ºÚÁÏÍø Leicester (ºÚÁÏÍø)’s Innovation Centre which is home to the region’s only Barclays Eagle Lab.

She said: “The support we have had since we announced that we were going to launch this network has just been incredible. The whole evening was full of positivity and brilliant business conversations. I am really excited to see what we can do together as we build this community and empower our Asian entrepreneurs on their journey to business growth.
