The women attended Sagicor Bank’s IWD café and workshop for women in business, held at their SME Business Resource Centre in Half-way-tree on March 8.
The workshop equipped the women to embrace equity with sessions on business law, wealth management and scaling businesses in the post-pandemic era, and featured presenters from the Scientific Research Council, Jamaica Business Development Corporation, and Development Bank of Jamaica.
