About eTrade for Women
Our objective is to help women digital entrepreneurs in developing and transition economies thrive as
leaders of the digital transformation and contribute to sustainable development.
eTrade for Women strives to empower women entrepreneurs in the digital world through four main action-lines
Inspire
We leverage the work and visibility of the eTrade for Women Advocates, outstanding digital entrepreneurs, to inspire the next generation of successful entrepreneurs and bring women’s voices to the front.
Connect
We strive to create and nurture communities of women digital entrepreneurs all around the world who can expand their network, share their experiences, develop their skills and discover new business opportunities at a national and regional level.
Empower
We help women digital entrepreneurs grow in the digital world by providing access to knowledge and support to develop their businesses and go beyond their bottom line.
Give a Voice
We seek to reduce gender inequality by bringing women digital entrepreneurs to the policy table. We want to leverage their presence in decision-making processes to shape a more sustainable and inclusive digital economy.
