The delegation participated in the \u201c100+ Women\u2019s Leadership\u201d series of events, designed to promote experience sharing and strengthen business cooperation.<br \/>\nThe first two days were dedicated to a practical workshop where Turkmen delegation and representatives of the International Association of Businesswomen of Uzbekistan discussed the role of women\u2019s communities and business associations, shared stories about their professional experience and explored new approaches to building sustainable organizations. Key topics included mentoring, access to educational programs, effective engagement with government institutions, and fostering an enabling environment for female entrepreneurship. Apart from strengthening their expertise, participants also engaged in lively discussions and group exercises, which allowed them to realize the significance of mutual support and professional collaboration in real life. A large-scale \u201c100+ Women\u2019s Leadership\u201d forum, which brought together over 200 women leaders from across the region, was a major event of the program.<br \/>\nOn the final day, participants focused entirely on B2B meetings between women entrepreneurs from both countries.
