ACCA leading ‘Women in Business Initiative’ in Multan

ACCA leading ‘Women in Business Initiative’ in Multan. ACCA collaborated as the knowledge partner with the Women Chamber of Commerce and Industry Multan and organised the ‘Blue Fair.’ It is a three day exhibition which provides a platform to women entrepreneurs from all over Pakistan to exhibit their products and services. Three days of ‘Blue fair’, were actually three days of a great show of women empowerment with the main aim of strengthening the female business community.

ACCA Pakistan has always been at the forefront in leading the agenda when it comes to the topic of women in business. In Pakistan statistics in access to finance are showing that women still face difficulties. When it comes to gender, the problem of perception still exists, especially in finance. ACCA is working with leading organisations to initiate and encourage the change that is needed from the grassroots.

Multan’s Women Chamber of Commerce and Industries shares the same agenda as ACCA and is dedicated to empowering women to achieve their full economic potential by inspiring them to become advocates, change makers and leaders in their community.
