Speakers
Chisola Chitambala is an Essex-based entrepreneur who reached the final five on this year’s edition of The Apprentice UK. She is the co-founder of CB Virtual Assistant, a successful virtual assistant business that she has run with her business partner for nearly three years. With a background as a paediatric nurse and an MBA to support her transition into entrepreneurship, Chisola brings a wealth of experience to her work. She is also a passionate advocate for migraine awareness, a children’s storyteller, and a keen netball player.
Chisola will share her inspiring journey full of navigating challenges, pivoting during adversity, adapting her business, staying true to her values, and the valuable lessons she learned from her time on national TV – all experiences that have shaped her entrepreneurial path. With honesty and insight, she’ll also reflect on the barriers she’s faced as a young woman in business, and how she continues to overcome them. Expect an empowering, thought-provoking session filled with real-world insights, resilience, and motivation.
