"Open your social media accounts and the ever-enduring popularity of Greece is clear: summer after summer, reel after reel and post after post, islands such as Crete, Mykonos and Santorini make an appearance. There's good reason for it; along with stunning natural beauty, each has more hotels and restaurants than you could possibly explore in one visit. But, this year, other islands are shining through." From the lesser know islands where luxury brands are opening for the first time to a breaking-through foodie scene, discover the best Greek islands to visit this year with Katie Silcox's (our managing editor and a resident of Greece for five years) guide. https://lnkd.in/gqxMxvaz

From exclusive hotel reviews across the world to insightful travel tips and fun interviews, our recommendations at Citizen Femme are all tried, tested, and honestly reviewed by women. So, we introduced our female-led team via our daily newsletters who shared everything from their packing tips to the exciting events, travel, and more coming up. Here are some of the highlights. Sheena Bhattessa, Founder & Editor I founded Citizen Femme almost 6 years ago now. I love storytelling, and I love the power of women. Citizen Femme, and Citizen Enfants, are the creation of my absolute love for travel and sharing adventure with fellow women. My dream destinations? The Brando Island, French Polynesia. Japan. And gorilla trekking in Rwanda. Favourite Trip? On my honeymoon, we started our travels at Borgo Santo Pietro in Tuscany, and left the rest open. We randomly selected north or south, and then decided on the hotel. Our next stop was Portofino via plenty of small towns and gelato along the way, and we continued doing this for a couple of weeks. What’s Coming Up? We have so many exciting CF events this year, and a whole series of new Citizen Enfants events launching from the summer, for mums and their children. But I am squeezing in some travel, albeit short haul with 2 young children in tow. Alpina Gstaad for summertime in Switzerland, and Borgo Egnazia in Puglia. Travel Tips You Swear By? Packing cubes for my carry-on luggage with endless amounts of snacks for children, and all my personal essentials in their own cube. To avoid high roaming bills, I also use a US T-Mobile chip when I’m travelling as it also comes with unlimited international data, ideal for Google Maps.

Thanks to William McQuillan Ladi Greenstreet Jo Dalton Lettie Dodds, CFA Alexis Owuadey for a brilliant, informative and helpful morning exploring investments for women founded businesses and AllBright for partnering with us on this event.
This morning we welcomed Citizen Femme to the club for the second instalment of the Citizen Femme X AllBright talks where we bring together a panel of some of the leading names in finance for an in-depth discussion on 'Navigating The World of Investments'. Moderated by Citizen Femme Founder, Sheena Bhattessa, and featuring leaders Ladi Greenstreet, Co-CEO of Diversity VC. Lettie Dodds, CFA, Chief of Staff at Brown Advisory, Former Management Consultant and Trader at Goldman Sachs. Jo Dalton, seasoned Founder, Entrepreneur, Investor, and Mentor to Female Founders. Alexis Owuadey, VP at HarbourVest Partners and William McQuillan, Founding Partner at Frontline Ventures and previous technology entrepreneur, this panel was truly enlightening. We dove into matters from approaching the world of finance and investment as an outsider to the different investment opportunities available to female founders and how to build your network and navigate the complexities of the investment landscape. Here are just a few highlights from the discussion: • Only 2p of every £1 invested in companies is given to female-founded companies. That statistic has not changed in over a decade but women's resilience in the face of these statistics is what will drive change. • Female-founded companies would have a better chance at securing investment if we encouraged more women to invest because people often invest in what resonates with them. • If you're trying to secure investment, focus on making the best first impression possible. Investors often have to make tough, but quick decisions about which founders to dedicate more time to. Be memorable, be engaging and interesting. • You don't just need to network for funding. Connect with peers and role models for things like mentoring. You never know what that will lead to. •Think big! Some of the problems businesses are trying to solve are too contained, think about your bigger purpose.
