This provided a good avenue for the founders of growth-oriented women-owned businesses to resolve their queries and have greater confidence in their company. This event was a good avenue to allow for face-to-face interactions with potential women-owned suppliers and partnerships. The event started out with talks ranging from how to plan well for success in a business, how to scale businesses to business tools that can aid the business.  The event ended with a panel discussion on how to unleash the true potential of women’s entrepreneurship.
