Find your voice.
Unlock your capital.
There are women carrying extraordinary ideas, businesses, dreams and experience who are still standing outside rooms that could change everything.
We want the REAL woman. Your story, your roots, your voice, your style, your ambition, your numbers, your idea.
Bring all of it.

Take the Floor
Dubai. Every month. Join us in person or live from anywhere in the world.
Our first gathering takes place in Dubai on 8 January 2027. A different exceptional guest speaker. A different member taking the floor. Every single month.
Monthly membership: £88
Women don't need another network. We need access.
But access on its own is not enough. Because giving a woman the key to the room means very little if she walks into it believing she has to become somebody else to belong there.
GWC sits in that space between readiness and access. We create experiences that help women remember their brilliance, strengthen how they communicate what they are building and then access people, conversations, opportunities and capital that can move it forward.
That is the gap we are interested in.

Which one are you?
-
I am a founder
You have the idea, the business or the ambition. Find your voice and get ready for the room.
-
I am an investor
Meet women founders who have done the work before they ever reach the stage.
-
I want to partner
Put your brand inside the change, not just beside it.
Readiness first. Access next.
Before the room hears your idea, we want it to meet you.
Take the Floor is where women come to remember their brilliance and learn how to express it.
Working with Jo, Debbie and exceptional global women who do not simply speak at you but actually work beside you, you explore the whole of what you bring: your voice, your story, your business, your numbers, your presence, your personal style, your confidence and the way you communicate what you are building.
Every month in Dubai, and live from anywhere in the world: a different exceptional guest speaker, a different member taking the floor. Women who complete the relevant Take the Floor preparation pathway may apply for consideration for the selected Take the Stage opportunities at Invest Forward.
You found your voice. Now let's open the room.
Invest Forward brings female founders, investors, CEOs, board members, business leaders, decision makers, global connectors, media and women at different stages of their journey into one high-energy room.
No judges. No scoring. No ranking. Just women stepping into the spotlight and a room full of people who can invest, introduce, collaborate, connect or open another door.
And this is not a boring investment conference. Expect music, performance, culture, fashion, great food, big energy, serious business and REAL conversations. The room is the opportunity.
We have met women with ideas that could become businesses.
Women with businesses that could become movements.
Women carrying decades of experience who still somehow say: "I don't know if I'm ready."
Women who can tell you exactly what everybody around them needs, then freeze when somebody asks: "And what do YOU want?"
We have also watched the world tell women that the answer is access.
Access to funding. Access to investors. Access to decision makers. Access to opportunity.
We agree.
But we want to go one step further.
We want her ready when the room says: "The floor is yours."
WHY?
Too many brilliant women are still waiting outside the room.
Don't take our word for it.

GOOD WOMAN
Founder & CEO
“I don’t need somebody to fix me. I know what I’m capable of and I know my idea has value. What I need is access. I need to meet women who understand investment, visibility and the rooms I haven’t reached yet. That is what excites me about Good Woman Circle. It is not telling me to become somebody else. It is helping me take what I already have and get it in front of the right people.” -

GOOD WOMAN
Creative Director & Entrepreneur
“Jo has this incredible ability to see something in you before you are completely ready to see it yourself. She does not try to polish you into somebody more acceptable. She pulls YOU forward. My ideas have never been the problem. I needed help saying them clearly, owning the room and allowing myself to be seen. Jo makes you feel like your voice belongs there before you have even finished convincing yourself.” -

GOOD WOMAN
CEO & Business Founder
“Debbie brings something completely different. She understands the rooms, the numbers and how decisions actually get made. She can listen to an idea and immediately start asking the questions that make it stronger. Who is investing? What are the numbers? What is the ask? Who needs to know about this? For a woman with ambition, having someone who understands access at that level is incredibly powerful.” -

GOOD WOMAN
Founder, Speaker & Creative
“I have spent years having ideas in my head and knowing I had something to say, but visibility has always been the difficult part. I want to speak on stages. I want people to understand what I am building. I want introductions to women who can help me move it forward. What I love about GWC, and especially Jo, is that the answer is not ‘change who you are’. It is ‘bring all of you, now let’s help the room hear you.’ That is the kind of support I have been looking for.”
Do you know what you want to say?
And we have a question
What happens when the door finally opens?
Can you explain what you are building?
Do you know your numbers?
Can you make the ask?
Can you walk into that room without becoming smaller just because the room got bigger?
That is where Good Woman Circle begins. We are not here to turn women into somebody more polished, more corporate, quieter or easier for the room to understand.
Meet the founders
Two women. Two completely different journeys. One very big idea.
On paper, Jo and Debbie probably should not make sense.
One journey has travelled through creativity, transformation, storytelling, people, stages, culture and helping somebody remember the part of themselves they had forgotten.
The other has travelled through global business, international markets, investment, family offices, high level relationships and rooms where serious decisions are made.
And somehow, that is exactly why this works.
Because Good Woman Circle was never meant to be built from one kind of woman.
And neither are the rooms we are creating.
Jo and Debbie stand shoulder to shoulder through the whole journey.
The preparation. The challenge. The confidence. The numbers. The introductions. The doors. The conversations. The honest cheerleading. The next move.
Different journeys. Shared values. One belief:
A woman should never have to become smaller just because the room got bigger.
Come and see what we're building in real time
There is no one else like you on this planet.
Bring the version of you with the big plans, and the one that doubts them at 2am. Bring the spreadsheet. Bring the poem you have not shown anyone yet. Bring all of it.
This is a room that gets louder when you walk in. Not quieter.
Join the list
The door's already open.
Maybe you are ready for Take the Floor. Maybe you want to come to Invest Forward. Maybe you are an investor. Maybe you are simply thinking: I don't know what this is yet, but I want to stay close to it.
Perfect.
