As part of our growth campaign next year, we’d like to offer our members the chance to become an official EWIF Partner in 2018. Help us build a stronger future for EWIF for the next ten years!
In 2018, EWIF is #10YearsStrong. Over the last decade, we’ve seen a huge increase in the number of women who are not only buying franchises, but who have expanded their businesses through franchising. Our membership base is now 110+ members strong, and counting.
However, we are not done! We have even BIGGER plans to grow and expand our reach next year, but we can’t do it alone. We need YOUR help!

Key Events
EWIF Regional meetings are held around the UK on a regular basis to allow members and prospective franchisees and franchisors to meet, network, discuss best practice and hear from a range of industry experts. Each year there are three meetings held in each region giving a minimum of 21 meetings over seven regions.
We also hold an annual awards ceremony in May, sponsored by NatWest, to recognise the achievements of women in franchising and to boost their position and give them more credibility in their industry. Next year there are nine award categories to celebrate and as always there will be a great keynote speaker to engage the audience. The evening before we hold a Pre-Awards Black Tie Reception, sponsored by McDonald’s, exclusively for award nominees, sponsors and now EWIF Partners.
The EWIF National Conference gives members the opportunity to come together, network and share ideas and expert knowledge. The conference, held at the end of EWIF week in September, has a range of speakers and also break-out sessions to keep delegates engaged and have ‘take-aways’ they can use back in the office. Last year the awards ceremony attracted in excess of 180 delegates and the national conference over 100 and these numbers are set to increase in 2018.
