This year’s Women in Business event, which will be staged on Friday March 20th and Saturday March 21st at the Pegasus Hotel seems set to mobilize women from all walks of life, determined to take their entrepreneurial pursuits to the ‘next level.’
Organized by the Sonia Noel Foundation, the event has become an extension of the wider celebrations associated with International Women’s Month. This year it is expected to place on display both the creative and entrepreneurial talents of a cross section of Guyanese women in a multiplicity of sectors, who have already made their mark in business.
Over the past few weeks the Stabroek Business has done a number of interviews with some of the participants in previous Women in Business events and have been struck by the inspiration that they appear to have derived from being associated with the forum.
The organizers have employed “Sustainable Industries For A Better Future” as this year’s slogan and Event Facilitator Sonia Noel told the Stabroek Business that the focus of the event will continue to be on putting the talents of the participants on display while, simultaneously, seeking to create entrepreneurial exposure on the local market.
Participants in Women in Business will benefit from Training Workshops that will embrace themes that include How To Be Expo Ready and Dress For Success.
This year’s Women in Business Facilitators will include Dr. Lotoya Gooding and Dr. Bhiroo Harry.
On Thursday Noel told Stabroek Business that she was “impressed with the variety of businesses that will be exhibiting their products and services” at the Women In Business forum this year.
