If you are an experienced businesswoman, academic, or policymaker taking part in another program at ICSB Congress, consider joining us at WE Advance. WE provide a space for women to network with a global network of like-minded individuals, attend workshops, and enhance business skills.
A finalized schedule will be available closer to the conference, but some workshops include topics on financing to generate values, embracing change for better business growth, and developing women entrepreneurs as drivers of economic growth.
For women new to ICSB and/or entrepreneurship, as well as for people in transition, such as small business owners wanting to grow, women interested in starting a business, or women interested in transitioning to an SDG-oriented business.
Designed for early career businesswomen and those with entrepreneurial interest, WE Grow is the perfect opportunity to learn about Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), develop a business plan, and network at an international level. Over the course of the week, SDG-focused workshops will teach WE Grow attendees the tools needed to create a business plan and how to grow their ventures through a model that incorporates Dream, Design, Build, Grow, Live, and Share.
Mentorship from WE Advance participants opportunities will be available to all those in the WE Grow community.
