Thursday, June 19, 2008 from 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM (PT)
The Keiretsu Forum Summer Solstice will educate and inform leading Bay Area business women about how they can support entrepreneurial efforts on a local, national, and global level. To that end, attendees will hear brief presentations and a panel discussion from leading members of the Keiretsu Forum, Women’s Initiative for Self-Employment, and WOW for Africa.
Women’s Initiative for Self Employment provides a one-stop shop where high-potential, lower-income women receive training to start and grow their business.
WOW for Africa helps grow small and medium size enterprises (SME) in West Africa through an innovative hybridization of capital and human resources. Most are owned and/or led by women. Too often lack of access to capital, networks, business expertise and training in low-income countries constrains the growth of these SMEs. WOW investments, WOW Foundation and WOW Enterprises organize and focus these resources to nurture promising African business ventures.
Please note that all registrations are final. No refunds. Day of registration at the door will be $40.
