HIGHLIGHTS: 3rd Women’s Business Summit Philippines

MANILA, Philippines – Who says women can’t have it all?

Career vs family? Women nowadays don’t have to choose.

To celebrate the upcoming International Women’s Day (March 8), the 3rd Women’s Business Summit brings successful female entrepreneurs and executives to the stage to talk about how they’re juggling self fulfillment and home.

Beyond work-life integration, how can women change their business environments to be women-friendly? What role will women assume in an economy that struggles for global integration and a field that continually demands new, evolving skills?

Watch this conference where women mentor women.
