Still on the Women’s Month, we mounted another gathering of vibrant entrepreneurs after the 7th Filipina Entrepreneurship Summit last March 6. More than 300 entrepreneurs attended the dinner forum with the theme: Women for Others. We celebrated their success as entrepreneurs and their personal advocacies to empower fellow Filipinas and others.

The dinner-forum featured Sen. Cynthia Villar, Doris Magsaysay-Ho, Socorro “Nanay Coring” Ramos and Dr. Jaime Aristotle Alip. They are what we call empowered women, and for Dr. Alip, one who also empowers women.

Before the dinner-forum started, I shared my gratitude to all women entrepreneurs in the audience who are truly an inspiration to many like Nanay Coring and Esther Vibal who are in their senior age, but are still active in their businesses. These women entrepreneurs must share their knowledge and experiences with others so that we can all promote entrepreneurship in the country.
