Women play a vital role in sustainable development. The empowerment of a woman is the empowerment of a household, a community, and the nation at large. However, women are yet to fully benefit from some of the economic opportunities such as public procurement that exist in the formal sector. In 2019 alone, over 1 trillion dollars was spent on procurement globally, and less than 1% of women owned businesses benefitted from this.
Do you want to know more about public procurement and how you can benefit from the opportunities in the public sector? RCE Ogun offers an opportunity for you to identify gaps in your business, develop new skills that would address challenges faced by women owned businesses and interact with successful business women who will inspire you.
Join us at the opening ceremony of the Regional Centre of Expertise (RCE) Ogun Women for Public Procurement Programme (W4PP), themed Women Inclusion in Procurement for Social and Economic Progress in Ogun State, scheduled to take place on the 24th of June 2021 at the Covenant University Centre for Research Innovation and Development (CUCRID) by 10 am. Attendance is free.
In the next one year, we will be organizing free webinars on financial management, digital marketing and networking, business ethics and communication skills, leadership skills, analytical and negotiation skills as well as mentorship sessions with successful business women to help you build a supportive network.
