Blog " Leadership Forum: the new business event by the Sales Club brand
The schedule of upcoming business events for 2025 is getting more exciting! A new thrilling opportunity is taking the stage. "Leadership Forum: The Art and Lessons of Success" – a joint project of the business brand Sales Club and "Women Entrepreneurs’ Day." The event aims to bring together ambitious entrepreneurs and managers from various fields who want to share their experience, expand their network of contacts, and get inspired with new knowledge and insights.
For the last 4 years Sales Club has established itself as a trusted partner for everyone who intends to develop their own business in Bulgaria. We are always looking for new ways to contribute to the expansion of the corporate ecosystem in our country, to raise the level of awareness, and to create conditions for active communication and exchange of ideas.
"Women Entrepreneurs’ Day" is an international initiative that started in 2014, aiming to highlight and create opportunities for women who run their own businesses or are developing in the corporate environment. In Bulgaria, the event has been held for the 7th consecutive year thanks to the Women Entrepreneurs Association "Selena." A trademark of the forum is the Calls for Entrepreneurship awards, which recognize women with achievements and contributions to public life in Bulgaria.
Business Leaders of the New Era – What Makes Them Different?
And why is a specialized event for people in business leadership positions necessary?
Entrepreneurs and managers of the new era stand out with a skill set that goes far beyond traditional management practices. Today, they are expected not only to think strategically but also to be technologically literate, with knowledge in areas such as artificial intelligence, sustainable development, and digital transformation.
The new business leaders must know how to communicate effectively in a multicultural environment, foster innovation, and build an inclusive work atmosphere on a daily basis. Emotional intelligence, the ability to make decisions under uncertainty, and continuous learning are key elements of the modern entrepreneur’s profile.

Ultimately, the successful leaders in business organizations will be those who find the golden balance between proven methods and the demands of the new economic environment.
