Remi commented: “Winning this award is so important to me as I’ve been shortlisted three years in the row so it recognises the hard work and growth of Red Cactus Media and myself on a personal level. I’m always grateful for all of life’s opportunities.  I really focused on keeping a positive mindset as well as,  training my mind on what you need to be to run a business. Opportunities don’t appear you have to help them appear and that is what I did.  Through meeting mentors and surrounding myself with successful businesswomen, I unlocked something in me and I really feel we can continue to look to the future in a positive way we have forged some great partnerships.  I’m often one of the few females in the room in regards to the video industry in Suffolk and my next aim is to get more women in the industry through my company”

In the past year, Red Cactus Media has pitched to national and international brands and worked on a wide variety of projects supporting Suffolk businesses as well as the largest European games industry awards which they will be covering for the second year in a row in November. The judges wanted to recognise the success of her business and her inspirational community work, running filmmaking workshops for young people, in shortlisting her for Female Entrepreneur of the Year.
