The Women of the Future Programme is a platform bringing together successful women across diverse sectors to inspire and support. We were proud to deliver their annual awards event, live, for its 17th year. 
“We hugely value working with Broadsword, you feel like an extension of our team and go above and beyond to ensure the smooth running of the event. Creatively you also raise the bar year on year, and this set looked amazing” 
Founder, Women of the Future

The awards celebrate the most innovative, determined and talented young women from every corner of the UK and in every field. From media to science, from sport to mentorship, the awards showcase this country’s trailblazers. The phenomenal talent shortlisted gathered for a night of networking and celebrations.


Broadsword worked closely with the Women of the Future organising team building the live event design. With a large number of awards and nominees, audience numbers were close to room capacity. As such we were creative in layout, staging placement and also ensuring that all nominees, and winners had their time in the limelight. Additional consideration was taken into making sure all sponsors we appropriately recognised. 

Having a long standing relationship with the WOF team gives us the knowledge and understanding of the programmes brand, and how best to place it front and centre of all venue branding and on-screen visual displays.
