European WBE Council

I’m proud to share that I have recently joined the European WBE Council from WEConnect International!

As the Swiss WBE Council representatives, Gabriella Skala and I contributing to building a stronger, more resilient ecosystem for women-led businesses in Switzerland by sharing opportunities and fostering meaningful connections across Europe.

As a Women Business Enterprise (WBE) myself, I’m excited to be part of this powerful network that connects, and empowers women entrepreneurs.

WEConnect International is a global network that connects women-owned businesses to qualified buyers around the world and helps drive money into the hands of women business owners by enabling them to compete in the global marketplace.

If you are a women business owner and are looking to grow your network with other women entrepreneurs, but also global corporates, then join us at WEConnect International.

I am grateful to join such a passionate group of WBE’s committed to driving positive change. I look forward to making a lasting difference alongside them!

If you want to meet or join us, WEConnect International hosts it’s Europe & MENA Summit in Madrid on November 17 and 18. I’m looking forward to engaging face-to-face with many inspiring women business owners and corporate leaders to forge meaningful connections and explore new opportunities.

Why WEConnect International ?
BECAUSE …. Women make up 50% of the global population and drive 80% of consumer spending, but account for just 1% of corporate and government procurement spend globally. The math makes it clear we cannot afford to ignore the potential of women as business owners, job creators, and business leaders. We simply must take steps to address this market failure.
