ABANA is delighted to partner with Atlantic Council’s empowerME initiative on welcoming their second cohort of WIn (Women Innovators) fellows from Bahrain, KSA, and the UAE in a special event focused on celebrating and empowering Arab Women in Business and Entrepreneurship.
This is a complimentary, limited-capacity event for ABANA members and their guests only (please see ticket types below for details). ABANA encourages and prioritizes women attendees especially to take advantage of this powerful women-focused event as it should not be missed!
A special thanks to ABANA Board Chairman, Marwan Azzi, for hosting this event at his offices!
