Citywealth Women in Wealth Group launched on Monday 7th June at The Arch London Hotel, Great Cumberland Place, W1. A gathering of forty women met to find out more about the new group which aims to provide a coherent and supportive group for senior women in the private wealth industry. Those attending were invited to become founder members of the Citywealth Women in Wealth Group.

Guests included Wendy Walton and Helen Jones, BDO, Helen Ratcliffe and Judith Millar, Bircham Dyson Bell, Karen Marks, Boodle Hatfield, Charlotte Thorne, Capital Generation Partners, Catriona Syed, Charles Russell, Pauline Crawford, Corporate Heart, Paula Higgleton, Deloitte, Juliet Wedderburn, Deutsche Bank, Carolyn Steppler, Ernst & Young, Caroline Butler, Lord North Street, Sally Tennant, Lombard Odier, Lesley Lintott, Penningtons, Louise Stoten and Joan Major at New Quadrant Partners, Nathalie Dauriac-Stoebe, Signia Wealth and Helen Watson, Rothschilds.

The group were treated to champagne and Earl Grey Martini’s which are a speciality at The Arch London Hotel, which is a newly opened five star boutique hotel with circa eighty rooms. Owned by AB Hotels, which is a family owned business, itcontains hundreds of thousands of pounds of British art commissioned especially for the launch, private suites and a bespoke martini cabinet in The Library. The Libraryis alsofull of original Taschen books. The Arch Hotel offers easy eats with burgers or fish pie or more elegant line caught sea bass in its Hunter 486 bar. It already has stars such as Madonna visiting and recently the Irish football team.

The evening was a roaring success with guests chatting furiously about the issues that surround women in business and also about philanthropic initiatives aimed at girls and women. Guests learned that a fact attributed to Harvard Review said that Women must receive accolades early in their career and ongoing in order to strive for greater success. The group also learned that Lord Puttnam, who runs a female charitable group has found research that says women generally do not put their hands up to ask questions at conferences and in large groups something that Citywealth noted and so has moved to a “quieter” format for this group with smaller tables and moderators to help initiate questions.

After two hours and many martini’s, guests headed off with goody bags which included offers from Nordic Balance, a new gym and personal training operation at the In and Out Club in St James’s, an invitation to attend a party at The Chelsea Day Spa to have cupcakes and champagne and to see the new Atelier Annick handbags which the likes of Cheryl Cole are sporting and Nosh detox included some of their detoxing bath sea salts and morning muesli to set our guests on a path to well being happiness. Helen Watson of Rothschilds was also the lucky winner of a Belle Fontaine face cream box worth ¬£450 donated by Wiamm Mati, their UK Agent.

The Citywealth Women in Wealth Group will have four meetings a year, with membership by invitation only at ¬£950 + vat per year. Events will be between 6.30-8.30pm and the first is set for 21st September with a guest speaker discussing “Winning business in the Middle East”. The format will be a speaker at a sit down presentation. Tables of ten with a moderator at each table to discuss the issues raised, then group answers and questions and a break for networking and cocktails. Light bites will be served and all costs are included in the yearly membership fee.

The Citywealth Women in Wealth Group will not include any lifestyle elements it is a business meeting and networking group of maximum fifty individuals only. Lifestyle opportunities and items will be presented at the end as goody bags but not discussed during the evenings.

Chatham House Rules apply which means no comments or quotes may be attributed outside the group to specific individuals.

Membership is not transferable. This will mean the same individuals meet regularly and are able to forge a strong support business network.
