In this episode, I sit down with Kate Disley, founder and CEO of TEMBO, a specialist marketing agency for event organisers, to explore her incredible entrepreneurial journey. Kate shares how a simple misunderstanding launched her into the world of exhibitions and events, turning an unexpected twist into a thriving business.

We dive into the challenges she faced as a single mum navigating the corporate world, her leap of faith into entrepreneurship, and how she built TEMBO from the ground up. Kate also opens up about the unique challenges of being a female founder in a traditionally male-dominated industry. She reflects on how the landscape for women in business has evolved over the past decade, offering valuable insights into overcoming gender barriers and building a support network.

Kate offers candid advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, discusses the importance of proving your concept before taking big risks, and talks about how she’s grown as a leader over the last 10 years.If you’re interested in hearing about the ups and downs of running a business, leadership lessons, and insights into the fast-paced events industry, this is an episode you don’t want to miss!
