From Friday to Sunday, the First Women Entrepreneurs Forum will transform Parque de la Paz into a dynamic hub of activity. This initiative is designed to create a space where women entrepreneurs can share their experiences, acquire new knowledge, and establish valuable connections, thereby opening new avenues for collaboration.
Throughout the three days, attendees will be able to explore nearly twenty stands showcasing various local entrepreneurial projects. Additionally, the forum will offer a comprehensive training program, including workshops, talks, and advisory sessions. These activities are aimed at both women with established businesses and those considering starting a project or seeking tools to develop their ventures. The program also includes entertainment options for children.
“"This proposal is part of the City Council's commitment to promoting public policies aimed at fostering women's economic autonomy and giving visibility to their contribution to the social and economic development of the municipality."
As a prelude to the main event, a training itinerary with several sessions has been organized. This Thursday, May 16, from 2:30 PM to 4:00 PM, the workshop “Communicate your business with impact: Communication strategies for your business” will be held. Next week, on Monday, May 20, at the same time, “From idea to action: Strategic marketing to grow your business” will take place. Finally, on Wednesday, May 22, also from 2:30 PM to 4:00 PM, the training “Turn your impact into sales: Keys to gaining online visibility” will be offered. All these sessions will be held at the Casa de las Mujeres María de la O Lejárraga, where in-person or telephone registrations can also be made.
