This 5-day program brought together thought leaders in the public, private and NGO sectors in São Paulo to discuss the opportunities and barriers facing women in Brazil. Emerging women leaders from across the country paired with established mentors from North and South America to exchange ideas and build upon skills and tools needed to build businesses and social enterprise and more effectively contribute to their communities.

During a public forum, panel discussions covered themes ranging from Women in the Workforce: A Driving Force for Business and Growth; Enabling Growth: Addressing Barriers Faced by Women-Owned SMES; Accelerating Procurement: Integrating Women-Owned Businesses into Global Value Chains; to Building Connections: Strengthening Networks Among Women in Brazil.
