Here’s what happened at Digital Women LIVE

Digital Women Live with NatWest was held on 4th November 2022 and it was a brilliant day, attended by many people from our community.
We loved seeing so many Digital Women meeting up again, sometimes for the first time in a couple of years, and also meeting people that they’ve only spoken to online.
Taking place at the NatWest Conference Centre in Bishopsgate, London, the day was packed full of brilliant talks, fireside chats, networking opportunities and skills sessions too.
The day started with an introduction from Digital Women founder, Lucy Hall, who introduced the first speaker of the day, Lizzie Parker from NatWest. Lizzie took the audience through a journey of mindset and discussed how we can open up our growth mindsets.
