The GHWCC Economic Development Mission Trip to France

The GHWCC recently hosted a successful economic development trip to Paris and Nice, France to encourage leaders to start a women’s chamber in their respective cities. The delegation included (as pictured from left to right) Samina Farid, Entrepreneur/Investor; Dr. Juliet Breeze, Next Level Urgent Care; Janette Marx, Airswift; Houston City Council Member Amanda Edwards; Jurga Zilinskiene, Council for Women in Commerce; Suzan Deison, GHWCC.

I was humbled to be in a group of such remarkable women. We had the chance to converse about meaningful topics and also had a great deal of fun getting to know each other and exploring Paris. The opportunity to share the experience with such fascinating women leaders was the icing on the cake — or should I say the ‘ganache’ on the French pastry?”

“One of my favorite parts of this trip was hosting a dinner with my Airswift French colleagues who intermingled and learned from the experience and wisdom of our delegation from the US. It was a magical night where conversation flowed so easily and the learning of different cultures and approaches to business left a profound impact on all who participated.
