Final Conference on topic : “Women Entrepreneurship and Challenges for EU Integration”

 

In the spirit of entrepreneurship, it is essential to recognize that women are important drivers of economic growth. Female entrepreneurship is a growing, dynamic and indispensable force in the world. Women entrepreneurs contribute to the socio-economic prosperity of a nation by creating jobs in different economic sectors, reducing the level of poverty and unemployment. Small and medium-sized businesses provide an engine for economic growth for many countries. Investing in women’s entrepreneurship is a one-way avenue to gradually accelerate the impact of creating a new venture. For this purpose we organize a conference that will be an event headed by women entrepreneurs and leaders in their businesses that grow in cities all over the country. The final conference “Women entrepreneurship and challenges for EU integration” will be held at the Holiday Inn Hotel on November 19-20, 2018. About 200 participants are expected to be represented by representatives from organizations, governmental institutions and women entrepreneurs from companies from Macedonia and the Balkan countries. The networking conference will include:

  • 4 panel discussions with representatives from different ministries, institutions, organizations and companies
  • Encourage discussion among the present representatives from different institutions and organizations and women entrepreneurs that are important for entrepreneurship.
  • B2b meetings
  • Presentation of the realized activities of the project

One of the first activities of the project is the establishment of the National Women’s Entrepreneurship Council, which builds an influential community that advocates the rise of women entrepreneurs, creating an environment for women to invest in women and connecting women with more opportunities and practical tools to achieve their business goals. This event was organized by the Foundation for Management and Industrial Research in partnership with the Association of Business Women and the GTF Initiative for Sustainable Growth from Croatia. The final networking conference is part of the project “Strengthening the contribution and efficiency of civil society organizations from the women’s entrepreneurship to EU integration policies in the field of economic policy (We-Contribute)”.
