Enterprise Expo 2024

Our flagship Enterprise Expo focussed on putting the customer first, as a series of high-profile and successful Jewish businesspeople shared their strategies for success.

Held inside our shared workspace, The Wohl Enterprise Hub – with more than 50 entrepreneurs, freelancers and small business owners in attendance – the event provided a day of inspiration, learning and networking.

The title of the Expo was ‘Customer First, Always’. Explaining the importance of this theme, Work Avenue CEO Debbie Lebrett said: “This isn’t just a slogan. It’s a mindset, a guiding principle and, ultimately, a blueprint for business success.”

Speakers included Bourne Leisure CEO Paul Flaum, Slip Receipts Founder and CEO Tash Grossman, Craig Hartzel of Hartz AI, Social Misfits CEO Rebecca Martin and Nick Rabin, the Founder of Possibility Consulting.

Just as valuable as the expert-led seminars were the buzzing networking sessions and vibrant discussions that took place during the coffee and lunch breaks.

Debbie added: “It was so positive to see so many businesspeople in our community exchanging ideas, forming connections and sparking collaborations.”

The event was organised and hosted by Work Avenue Head of Business Joanna Sadie and Business Adviser Kim Davidson.

Attendee Julia Morgan, who runs inclusive personal training business Fit For All, said: “This was an inspiring and thought-provoking event. I came away with lots of action points and ideas for my business and had the chance to network with many like-minded people.”

Wayne Chodosh, a partner in Utility Warehouse, added: “We learnt what it was like to be a CEO of a holiday company with 17,000 employees and what it’s like to have created a start-up tech company. This was followed up by an AI specialist whose way of explaining something complicated made it so easy. Put my name down for next year, please!”
