ISLAMABAD: Islamabad Women’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IWCCI) and atomcamp is organizing 3rd WIBFEST; an event aiming to create opportunities for women in business from all across Pakistan.
The event will help women to showcase their products or services, validate
their ideas, build their brand and develop their own network of marketing, customers and suppliers. In a statement issued here today, IWCCI President Naima Ansari said that this is a ‘much-needed’ and ‘should-participate’ event not only for the entrepreneurs but for the entire business fraternity which will open a window of possibilities for them.
She said that 2020 and 2021 were extra challenging years for all of us,
globally, nationally and individually. Small businesses felt the biggest
impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
The pandemic had a severe effect on women-owned businesses and resulted in
bankruptcies, while many are still struggling for survival, she added.
In order to support and encourage women in business, IWCCI is organizing
WIBFEST 2021 on 12th and 13th March 2022 at F-9 Park. Islamabad.
Hence, this connecting, collaborating and clustering will provide the
strength needed to promote businesses in Pakistan.
WIBFEST will showcase the creative products and handicrafts coming to
Islamabad from all across Pakistan.
Such events provide a marketplace to home-based businesses and encourage
them to play their role in showcasing the positive and progressive image of
Pakistan in front of the international community.
Atomcamp is a continuous learning platform that aims to intellectually and
professionally uplift Pakistan’s workforce. The organization has launched
numerous courses, workshops, and programs to upskill the workforce and
create awareness regarding the importance of continuous education.
