The Female Founders Network (FFN) will host its flagship monthly event on 24 September at In5 Tech, Dubai Internet City, bringing together entrepreneurs, creatives, and business leaders for an evening of networking and knowledge-sharing.
The event will feature a panel of speakers with diverse entrepreneurial journeys. Dr. Katherine Iscoe, leadership expert and former tech CEO, will share insights on resilience and confidence in leadership. Alice Bugeja, founder of women’s run-wear brand mileoff, will discuss achieving AED 1 million in sales within 90 days of launch without paid advertising, highlighting community-led growth. Sarah Jones, founder of Rayne and former CEO of e-commerce platform Sprii, will reflect on raising more than $13 million in funding and lessons learned from scaling businesses.

“With every flagship event, we’re proving that the UAE is one of the most exciting places in the world to be a woman in business,” said Nicki Bedford, Founder & CEO of the Female Founders Network. “The real magic happens in the connections formed, the confidence built, and the collective momentum that pushes every founder in the room to go further.”
Supported by partners including Google, the Female Founders Network has established itself as a platform for ambitious women to access mentorship, strategy, and community. The organization continues to play a role in positioning the UAE as a growing hub for female-led entrepreneurship.
