The Wonder Women Conference is like no other conference. You’ll leave feeling energised and inspired.

Remember, you are so much more than your job.

Held at the prestigious BFI Southbank, the Wonder Women Conference supports, nurtures and develops marginalised women who work in Television and the creative industries, who are at mid-senior level in their careers and are most at risk of leaving the sector in the current economic climate.

By investing in us, you are helping to sustain Wonder Women as a Community Interest Organisation and support the next generation of women participating in the Wonder Women Mentoring Programme.
