Women Founding Differently: Ambition on Your Own Terms

Friday 6 November, The Patch, 10am - 12pm.

Starting a business is one thing. Deciding what you want it to become is another.

How do you turn an idea into something that pays? When should you push for growth, and when is enough, enough? Can you build a successful business without giving it every hour you have?

Following last year's sell-out event, Women Founding Differently is back at Patch Twickenham for a morning of candid conversation about starting, building and growing a business on your own terms.

Local leadership coach Kate Rainford-Foakes will bring together a brilliant panel of female founders to explore the decisions behind their businesses: the first steps, the risks, the mistakes, the turning points and the choices they're still making.

Because ambition can mean building a team, reaching a revenue milestone or creating something with real scale. It can also mean financial independence, greater freedom and work you're proud of.

Knowing what you want is one thing. Making it work for you is where the conversation gets interesting.

HKUK Carnival 2026

Saturday 7 November, Kingston Community Centre.

From 7th to 15th November 2026, HKUK Carnival will take place at HKUK Kingston Community Centre, a three-storey historic building formerly home to a Telephone Exchange and Sorting Office. Once a place that connected people and places, the building will be reimagined as an open and welcoming cultural space to explore migration, memory and cultural identity through conversations that cross borders and communities.

Spanning nine days and two weekends, the Carnival takes the telephone as its point of departure. Imagining signals travelling across time, connecting past and present, the Carnival becomes a conduit that sparks new conversations. The Carnival also offers an opportunity to share the experiences of Hong Kong's emerging migrant community in Kingston, creating space for exchange and understanding between people from different backgrounds.

Part open house, part cultural gathering, the Carnival will bring people together through exhibitions, performances, workshops, and a craft and publishing market. It welcomes people to meet, share stories and discover new perspectives under one roof.

Through these different forms of expression, we hope to create opportunities to listen to one another, to tune in to the signals, stories and experiences that connect us, even across different places and generations.

Step into the Hong Kong you remember, or discover one you have never known. Here, Hong Kong is not simply a place held in memory, but an evolving idea that continues to travel, transform and grow.
