2nd BPW Mediterranean Symposium surpasses all expectations!
The symposium united women from across the region to raise questions, discuss and debate the issues and challenges that women entrepreneurs face today. Participants and panelists came well prepared for the exchange which was both inspiring and informative. By the end of the day, the symposium had delivered positive results that all could take back home, to help us tackle the social remnants of the past and approach the future with confidence and conviction.
The Symposium closed with a memorable gala dinner that had it all: music, dance, dining and a wonderful atmosphere defined by the multicultural dimension of BPW International. Many thanks to our members, symposium delegates and friends, dignitaries and officials who shared this special evening with us.
