Women on the rise of entrepreneurs in dubai

The uAE is a great place for women. Blessed with a progressive leadership, the uAE is a haven for women who want to break the glass ceiling. The sheer security of being able to walk down the streets at any time of the day and night is amazing. Dubai is among the best cities for women as a whole. Nitasha Kohli Noronha,

Founder, Awebco

The in-built confidence and a strong mind in a child are the beginning of empowerment in any human being. The uAE’s role in women empowerment begins with the educational facilities given at schools, the encouragement of girls to go further in every field and the equal pay system. Shirley Jeff, creative head and managing partner of Bowline Corporate Gifts

The UAE has a number of organisations that empower women. The Dubai Business Women’s Council is a great platform from where you can connect to other businesses, hear their success stories, get advice from peers and attend training workshops in areas of your business that you are not familiar with. Sonia Satham, co-founder, Panacea Medical and Wellness Centre

Women are increasingly taking up the entrepreneurial path in the uAE and they derive lot of confidence from the open and safe society. The uAE government is encouraging more women to participate in business. Seeing so many women in business is a discovery. Divya Bhagtani, founder, Accountant’s Box
