Who are the top 30 businesswomen in the UK. The answer can be based on
own views as there are so many variables as to what constitutes
success... I'm talking about influence, wealth etc. Any answers
including up and coming new female entrepreneurs would be very much
appreciated.

Hello rai130-ga,
  
The best source I could find is the Management Today Magazine?s annual
list of "Britain?s 50 Most Powerful Women" by Rebecca Hoar (July
2004). The list was compiled by MT consulted commentators, academics,
headhunters and professional bodies in the UK, including Cranfield
School?s centre for developing women business leaders, Leonard Hull,
Spencer Stuart, the Zygos Partnership, the Law Society and the
Institute of Chartered Accountants.
   
The "ones to watch" also mentioned are: Zoe Appleyard, Kate Avery,
Kate Bostock, Liz Cacciottolo, Jayne-Anne Gadhia, Alison Goligher,
Nicola Pease, and Alison Ritchie.

Thanks for the clarification.
    
All the searches I performed all point to the Management Today
Magazine?s annual list of "Britain?s 50 Most Powerful Women".
    
The only other source I found which may be useful, is Fortune's list
of 50 most powerful women outside the US. Of the women based in
Britiain, Marjorie Scardino (CEO, Pearson) is ranked No 3, Kate Swann
(CEO, W H Smith) is ranked No 10, Rose Marie Bravo (CEO, Burberry) is
ranked No 13, Vivienne Fox (Executive Vice President, BP) is ranked No
15, Clara Fox (CEO, London Stock Exchange) is ranked No 17, Val
Gooding (CEO, Bupa) is ranked No 18, Sly Bailey (CEO, Trinity Mirror)
is ranked No 23, and Amelia Fawcett (Vice Chairman, Morgan Stanley
Europe) is ranked No 40
