National Chamber of Exporters (NCE) will be conducting the ‘WOMEN TO THE FORE IN EXPORTS’ Forum on July 25, 2018 at Galle Face Hotel from 5.30 pm on-wards to discuss and highlight the importance of increasing the participation of Women Entrepreneurs in Business, leading to exports.
This initiative is allied with the stated policy of the Sri Lankan Government to encourage increased participation of Women in the Economic Development of the country.
This policy is strongly reflected in the legislation enacted by the Government to ensure the participation of a minimum of 25% of women in all elected legislative bodies. The Forum intends to address issues both at the policy and operational levels which hinders participation of women in cross border business activities. The Chief Guest at the Forum will be the Amena Arif, Country Manager SL and the Maldives of the International Finance Corporation (IFC).
The guest of honour will be Varuni Amunugama Fernando, Joint Managing Director, Triad (Pvt) Ltd. who will deliver the Key note address.
These addresses will be followed by a panel discussion comprising professionals to analyze, and highlight the various issues related to the sector.
