Women entrepreneurship in times of crisis

Date: Mars, 5 2014

In the context of a big economic crisis unemployment for women is higher and increases faster than men. Self-employment can help women to change this tendency and guarantee income. 

The conference has three main goals: - to promote entrepreneurship for women through success stories and shared experiences - to encourage women to to start their own business or to develop their existing business - to promote sharing and networking among the speakers and the attendees
