Regional Events in South Asia

This amazing opportunity gives participants access to course content including topics such as Building Leadership Skills, Aligning and Executing Business Strategy, Developing Unique Selling Pitches, Understanding Value Proposition, Negotiating Business Deals and How to Communicate with Local and Global Corporations.

This roundtable will bring together leaders of corporations who actively source in or from Pakistan and are interested in supplier diversity and inclusion and sharing best practices. This will lay the foundation for an engaging discussion about regional and global efforts to close the gap in gender-inclusive sourcing and increase market opportunities for women business owners in Pakistan while providing buyers with greater innovation and competitive procurement opportunities.

Please join us for a full-day Summit featuring high-level speakers, engaging plenary discussions, and break-out sessions aimed at identifying opportunities and constraints for bolstering women-led job creation in Pakistan, highlighting perspectives on supply chain resilience, building gender equitable workplaces, and sharing tips for fueling entrepreneurial success.

We invite leaders representing the private sector, government, philanthropy, and civil society to reflect on critical investment, partnerships and policies required to accelerate women’s economic advancement in the United States and Pakistan.

Co-hosted by WEConnect International, the Lahore University for Management Sciences, Texas A&M University, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s U.S.-Pakistan Business Council, S&P Global and Vital Voices Global Partnership. The Summit is an initiative of the U.S.-Pakistan Women’s Council (Council), a public-private partnership between Texas A&M University and the U.S. Department of State with funding support from the State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.
