Calling all women entrepreneurs. 19th November is your day to celebrate

Yes, we agree. Women entrepreneurs should be celebrated each and every day. The challenges they face and the triumphs they should revel in are so often swept up in the ongoing momentum of working towards their goals. On the 19th of November, women entrepreneurs globally are acknowledged on a proclaimed day just for them. The Women’s Entrepreneurship Day Organisation is hosting a summit that can be joined virtually. They note to “pledge your time, talent, or treasure to women In business”.

 

More about the organisation - #ChooseWOMEN is a directory of women-owned and led businesses that support our mission of alleviating poverty by empowering, celebrating, and supporting women in business worldwide! The worldwide movement will create an international network and database of women-owned or led businesses and will feature women and men who have signed up for the #ChooseWOMEN Pledge through our website and social media who help support a businesswoman in their community with Talent, Time, or Treasure.
