Two related stories from the Daily Telegraph today reflect the increasing importance of women in business. One suggests that female entrepreneurism is uo according to Government figures, although pressure groups disagree. The other suggests that women are forming their own support networks so that they don't rely on the older male-dominated cliques.
It does seem a shame that there needs to be any separate network for women - but even more of a shame that the idea behind some of these appears to be to imitate rather than improve upon the systems that gave us the old boy networks in the first place.
