The Seeds of Unlimited Success is gathering momentum as delegates, exhibitors and speakers look ahead to our third annual

Family Business Growth Summit.

Aimed at individuals, couples, partners and members within a family-run business, this fun-filled, action-packed day offers something for all the family, young and older.

I am a focused self-employed mum. I am also looking out for my aging mum, plus home educating my son who has additional learning needs. So, I know only too well the challenges of juggling work and family life.

I understand that to succeed in business, I must take care of my health and well-being to ensure I have the physical and mental resilience to show up with vitality and high energy every day.

I want to create a community and support self-employed mums and dads and show them that you can grow your legacy, without sacrificing your health, values, or time with loved ones. That’s why I created the Seeds of Unlimited Success Family Business Growth Summit.

Our Family Business Growth Summit is designed to identify and address some of the common challenges faced by family-owned businesses. There are also benefits from attending this event if you work in your business alone.

After a tough year in my personal life, I'm very excited to have a chance to host our third event on Saturday 23rd May 2026. You can learn more in one of our expert masterclasses. As usual there will also be exceptional headline speakers who will share valuable insights to inspire you.

I'm delighted to announce, Rik Courtney, devoted dad, TEDx Speaker and Founder of LION State is returning to the Seeds of Unlimited Success programme as our Afternoon Keynote Speaker.

I have also assembled fantastic industry leaders for another Leadership Panel. Full speaker updates to be announced soon. You won't want to miss out on hearing their nuggets of wisdom. As usual there will also be plenty of opportunities to network and socialise with like-minded people.

New for 2026 are our plans to livestream the summit. If travelling to our event is challenging, you can always stay connected to the main event, access a unique online masterclass and also benefit from online networking activities.

So, whether you plan to attend for the face to face experience. Or login online, my family and I look forward to having you with again in Nottingham, or welcoming you there!

Best wishes,

: Vanessa-Mary.

That’s what you get when you attend a business growth summit with your work partner.

Have you ever attended an event where the speakers lit up your soul?

Where you got so much great content that your head was spinning, and you couldn’t wait to get back to your day job and start putting what you have learned into action?

What was it like trying to convey how you felt to your partner? Impossible?

It is difficult to give someone the same feeling if you have been fired up and they have been at home looking after the family and other responsibilities.

This time experience the magic – TOGETHER.

When you work with someone, your spouse, family member, best friend, or business partner, it is vital that you are both on the same page.

You both need to be driven by the same mission, and you need a clear strategy of how you are going to achieve your goals.

You also need access to training and personal development that is appropriate to your situation.

Don't worry if you're planning to attend the event alone. Our action-packed programme offers a series of interactive masterclasses, as well as a suppliers’ showcase and opportunities to network with fellow business professionals. You will leave with many contacts to be able to follow up with!

"I am so grateful to be here with you.

The energy is fantastic!"
