Cotswold Networking Winning Awards

The Best Businesswomen Awards have announced their winners for 2024 at a Gala Awards evening held at the Hilton Syon Park on 12th October.

Cotswolds Businesswoman Angela Roberts from Cotswold Networking won Silvers for Best Networking Group and for Best Solo Entrepreneur in this prestigious competition which seeks to find the very best female business talent from across the UK. Established by Angela in February 2022 as an idea to help local businesses get back on their feet after the lockdowns, Cotswold Networking has grown to over 200 members and currently has five groups in Malmesbury, Cheltenham, Cirencester, Bath and Witney.

Despite a challenging economic climate, the innovation, flair and passion of female entrepreneurs shone through. All winners, selected by a panel of business experts, demonstrated their business acumen, tenacity and courage.

The Best Businesswomen Awards are designed to recognise the achievement of female-owned businesses and charities across a wide range of business categories and are open to any female business owners.

Debbie Gilbert, the organiser of The Best Businesswomen Awards, said, “This is the 10th Year of the awards, and we have recognised over 1000 women since we launched in 2015 across a huge range of industry sectors. The selection process is rigorous and to be one of our winners is a major achievement. The judges make their selections based on business expertise, innovation, and high levels of customer care. Our winners are shining examples of outstanding entrepreneurs who have proved their success to our judges and have shown they have the results worthy of being recognised and rewarded.”

Angela, Founder of Cotswold Networking added, “I am incredibly honoured to have received two Silver Awards at the UK-wide Best Businesswomen Awards for Best Networking Group and Best Solo Entrepreneur. This recognition reflects the passion and dedication I’ve put into building Cotswold Networking and supporting others in their business journeys. I’m deeply grateful for the trust and support of our community and I am excited to continue supporting and inspiring others to achieve their own successes.”
