The interactive session brought together women from diverse industries and organisations, and addressed issues concerning women in all areas of economic endeavour.

Featuring women entrepreneurs, professionals, businesswomen and budding entrepreneurs, they were charged to leverage the power of technology to advance their career.

Afua Osei, an Entrepreneur, Investor, and a seasoned Public Speaker, who gave the keynote address urged women not to be overwhelmed by the harsh economic environment that seeks to limit them from attaining greater heights.

According to her, “It’s a tough society with series of odds stacked against women but we must never give up.

We will find it hard going alone but our strength is in our unity. When we collectively face challenges, we will achieve more.

We should network more, share insights more and seek solutions together. We must not be overwhelmed by the institutional and cultural hurdles in our paths, we must refuse to be limited.”

Osei who had also served in the office of America’s ex-First Lady, Michelle Obama, added that “this is a unique opportunity that has been offered to us by Cloudcover, we should do well to seize it and also look into offerings by the company that can assist us in our respective endeavours.

Whether entrepreneur, professional or businesswomen, we will find the device invaluable.”
