The aim of the catalogue is not only to showcase innovative projects led by women, but also to promote their international visibility, sharing of experiences and the creation of new partnerships. The catalogue is published with the support of Enterprise Europe Network advisors from the Women Entrepreneurship thematic group and features businesses across eight key areas: agri-food, health, lifestyle, manufacturing & installation, media & audiovisual, services & digital, tourism and social economy.
Among the selected projects there are five inspiring projects from the Czech Republic:
On the occasion of the Catalogue launch , a hybrid event “Women Entrepreneurship: e-Catalogue Pitch & Networking” will also take place on 31 March from 14:00 to 17:00 in Porto, Portugal (with online participation). The dynamic meeting will bring together women entrepreneurs and innovation ecosystem actors to foster partnerships, share experiences and strengthen the role of women in the European innovation landscape.
Support for women in business has a strong background in the Czech Republic. For example, CzechInvest has been working in this area since 2017. Its programmes, including the Academy of Enterprising Women, have helped hundreds of women entrepreneurs develop their projects. JIC also plays a significant role with its Empower programme aimed at female startups. The Association of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises and Tradesmen of the Czech Republic awards women entrepreneurs every year through the eWoman competition .
In addition, there are a number of initiatives and entrepreneurial communities across the region, such as the Association of Enterprising Women of the Pardubice Region, Podnikavky MSK and many others. Their common goal is to improve women’s access to information, contacts and financing and to promote equal opportunities in business.
