Celebrate. Connect. Be Inspired.

With a new venue for 2026, don't miss one of the East Midlands' most empowering nights of the year as we honour the outstanding achievements of women in business.

Once again, our host is ITV's, Emma Jesson who will guide us through the evening.

Join us to enjoy a delicious three-course dinner, connect with fellow professionals, and celebrate with the finalists and winners of the Enterprising Women Awards 2026.

Overview

Be part of an unforgettable evening as the East Midlands Chamber proudly presents the Enterprising Women Awards 2026 – a key event in our calendar that shines a spotlight on the region’s most inspiring women in business.

This is more than an awards ceremony. It’s a celebration of passion, resilience, and innovation across all levels – from rising apprentices and team leaders to trailblazing entrepreneurs and the supportive teams that help them thrive.

This year, we are delighted to be hosting the event at Center Parcs Sherwood Forest - a beautiful venue located in the beautiful woodland and overlooking the iconic lake.

The awards promises to be an evening full of vibrancy, pride and celebration with a welcoming atmosphere.

Guests will be treated to a welcome drink upon arrival followed by a delicious three-course meal as we crown our 2026 winners. The evening will be opened by Co-chairs Eileen Perry DL MBE and Jean Mountain, and hosted by ITV's Emma Jesson.

There'll be plenty of opportunities to network and whether you're there to support a nominee, connect with like-minded professionals, or simply soak up the inspiration, the Enterprising Women Awards promises a night of recognition and connection.
