Hide AdMaster coach Lucienne Shakir, charity co-founder Lorraine Lewis, marketing agency co-founder Hannah Brady, and public relations firm director Kim Hughes joined forces to bring the event to the town for the first time.


With a wide variety of masterclasses, workshops, networking opportunities and keynote speakers last year, including brand and retail expert, broadcaster and author Mary Portas, the organisers hope that 2025 will be the best yet.
The Summit is set to take place from June 12 to 14, with an extra day added for the first time in Northampton.
The topics and speakers will gradually be released in the coming months, but organiser Lucienne has already been revealed as one of the keynote speakers for the first time.

Hide AdAs a business coach specialising in high performance and female empowerment, and the founder of ‘The Collective of Extraordinary Women’ mentoring business, Lucienne is the face of the Female Founders Summit and will be imparting her knowledge.


Lucienne’s fireside chat and panel question-and-answer session will be accompanied by women of all ages, backgrounds and industries sharing their expertise across the three days.
The sessions will cover more topics than the previous three years, including digital marketing and ads, the growth of the AI landscape, and the trauma of being a woman in business, just to name a few.
There will be a full day of holistic wellbeing at Delapre Abbey this year, which was a much-loved venue in 2024. Attendees can choose to participate in this as part of the full three days, or opt for just the final two.
