CATÓLICA-LISBON will hold the 1st edition of the WomenEntrepreneurs@ CatólicaLisbon on March 30th, at 9am. Open to all civil society, this event aims to provide entrepreneurial women with the tools they need for the success of their businesses.

As there is still gender-based economic inequality in Portugal, this initiative is aimed at all women who have launched or are planning to launch their businesses. Some 400 women entrepreneurs are expected to attend the 1st Edition of this WomenEntrepreneurs@CatólicaLisbon.

The event consists of 12 workshops on important topics for the establishment of a business, such as: how to develop a business plan; how to know your client; how to communicate your business; how to use the social media; how to access Portugal 2020 funds; how to manage a negotiation; how to improve your website; how to boost networking; how to attract and manage employee expectations; how to do business cost control; how to internationalize your company. These are some of the topics for which you can register.

Workshops are expected to have a strong practical component, since the main objective is that participants learn something very concrete that they can immediately put into practice.
