ARAB WOMEN IN THE GLOBAL ECONOMY

The event “Arab Women in the Global Economy,” hosted at the Arab-British Chamber of Commerce in London in March 2013, proved to be a momentous occasion as it was the first event of its kind . A distinguished panel of speakers captivated the audience with insightful speeches on global economic affairs, shedding light on the remarkable contributions and achievements of Arab businesswomen in their professional lives. The speakers emphasized the ability of Arab women to represent themselves effectively on the world stage, showcasing their talents at the international level.Following the enriching forum, a networking lunch provided an ideal platform for delegates to connect, converse, and forge contacts for potential future partnerships.

This collaborative atmosphere set the stage for the second part of the event—a spectacular NAFNOF Fashion Show held at the prestigious Intercontinental Hotel, Park Lane, London. The seated dinner event allowed guests to engage directly with designers who had travelled from the Middle East, offering a unique opportunity to explore and appreciate the creative brilliance emanating from the region.

The event not only celebrated the achievements of Arab women in the global economy but also facilitated cultural exchange and potential collaborations in the dynamic world of fashion and business.
