Innovation and EntrepreneurshipGeneral Information
Our original organization (Business Bridge) was founded 10 years ago in Belgium with 1 mission: creating equal opportunities for women in business. We did that through educational pillars, national networking events and seminars. We have a strong team of a few volunteers, 5 freelancers, 2 full-time people involved. This year we opened a new branch in our organization, European Women Association, an NGO, to broaden our international relationships through yearly conferences and online training and networking. Our partners are strong global organisations supporting our mission: World Trade Center Antwerpen: https://wtcantwerp.be/content/ WE-gate Europe: https://wegate.eu/ WORLD BUSINESS ANGELS INVESTMENT FORUM:https://www.wbaforum.org/ Diplomatic World: http://diplomatic-world.com Angels Nest: https://angelsnest.lat/anef/bootcamp-crowdfunding WinTrade Global: https://wintradeglobal.com/ For this project, our main source of income are membership fees and sponsorship in natura (location, advertising) For the international conferences, we can count on the support of Facebook, Deloitte and Mastercard (UK)Mission and Objectives
Our mission is to work on the equality of women in business and beyond. We support women with relevant networks, mentorships and connection to funding. We also believe in the importance of education of young women, as they are creating the new normal for the generations that come.Main Projects / Activities
Women empowerment activities Promotion of the development projects Mentoring programs Yearly international conferences Education on how to scale for women in businessHow can you contribute to the Network in your country?
Our European network has grown internationally in the last 10 years of our activities. And we are open to sharing our contacts. We can support with mentoring, as we have the practical experience in the educational projects. And of course, we are ready to share our knowledge on starting and growing your business.Why do you want to join the ALF Network?
We would like to become a member of the ALF as our organisation is interested in the creation of the women based Network with the maximum coverage of the world, for the moment we are quite strong in the countries of the European Union and would like to go further in our Euro-Med cooperation. The partnership that we are going to develop with the ALF Networks in Meda countries aimed to provide good-quality training and learning opportunities for youth women active in Euro-Mediterranean co-operation, based on intercultural learning and participation of women, and human rights education. We believe that one of the overarching concerns of Euro-Mediterranean co-operation is not to create new, artificial borders, but instead to recognise the many liquid borders and interconnections between all our countries and women of those countries.
