Athena Magazine aims to empower Devon-based women in business with actionable insights, inspiring stories, and a supportive community. We hope to provide support to help you thrive and a place to celebrate your successes.

In creating this magazine we hope to showcase relatable mentors, role models and networks that will inspire not only local women, but also the next generation of women who are still coming through the education system.

The magazine will be free to read, and available online (particularly at first), although we do hope to offer print editions in the future.

The magazine is a project by two local business owners, Fran Minifie and Stacey Sheppard, who have teamed up to create a fabulous resource for local women in business.

The magazine will feature a range of articles that will be useful for local women in business, including features on local businesswomen and their stories, useful information about local networking events, coworking spaces and awards, plus articles that will help with advice on tax, marketing, legal advice for small businesses and more!

We'll also be accepting article submissions from local women in business, so if you would like to write an article for us, please get in touch with your ideas or your article for consideration.

For advertising opportunities in the magazine, please contact us for further info and a rate card.
