March 2023 – Beverley Brown
news published date 2 March 2023Bev, our Director of Talent Recognition and Head of Female Entrepreneurs at WIBF, is a true force of nature. She exudes energy and is a changemaker with a positive and upbeat attitude that is contagious. Bev’s willingness to lend a helping hand and her vast network of contacts have led to numerous strategic and commercial introductions that have made a significant impact.
WIBF President and CEO, Anna Lane said. “I want to express my sincere gratitude to Bev for her hard work in developing the alumni strategy. She has breathed new life into this previously underutilised gem within WIBF. Her efforts culminated in last year’s highly successful Alumni event featuring a talk by WIBF’s Patron, Iris Bohnet, and sponsored by Citi. Bev’s exceptional organisational skills were also on display at the WIBF awards ceremony held at Proud Embankment, where she secured a plethora of sponsors who provided prizes for the winners. This was a lovely touch and made the event even more special.“
Bev is an inspiration, tirelessly working for WIBF despite going through a difficult time following the loss of her beloved mother. Her contributions are invaluable, and I hope she knows just how much she is appreciated. Thank you, Bev, for all that you do.
