WEConnect International

“Certification showed that People Agency is not only ready to compete, but also ready to lead.”

“It’s a pleasure and privilege of mine to be associated with WEConnect International and use the Women Owned logo. It has made a lot of difference in promotion and sales of my products. I personally feel women entrepreneurs are harbingers of self-reliance, excellence in planning and execution and, most of all, compassion. Be it a small scale start-up or a multinational corporation, women entrepreneurs have been a global voice having the audacity of hope and sowing the seeds for transformational progress.”

“Today, people approach me saying, we didn’t know you were Women-Owned! We need to talk! We need to do business with you,”

“WEConnect International did not just help me grow my business — it amplified my impact.”

“You simply cannot put a price on having access to that level of expertise and genuine support.”

“WEConnect International has been transformational — it represents the difference between having brilliant ideas and actually getting the opportunity to present them to the decision-makers who matter.”

“Through WEConnect, we have formed strategic alliances with other small businesses across Latin America, which share our commitment to diversity and similar business objectives. This platform not only fosters connections, but also enhances our awareness of the initiatives led by women-owned companies globally.”

“We had a level of co-operation which was trust-based, friendly, tireless and impeccable in the outcome.”

“We had an excellent collaboration since the very definition of our requirements all the way through project execution, event management and post event follow-up”

“The people within the WEConnect International network are why it so special.”

“I’ve learned that we’re all kindred spirits, and we really want to help each other,”

“We have been fortunate to connect with several large corporate buyers through WEConnect International correspondence. Speaking directly to people and meeting face to face, you begin to grow relationships. The big benefit of the network, though, are the other members, who provide great support and act as a sounding board,”

“The benefit of registering with WEConnect International is not only access to the large member-buyer corporations, but also to the other WBEs in the global network. We can help each other grow by working together.”

“I credit my success to WEConnect International. Attending the Think Big event in Delhi in 2015 completely redefined my thought process about running a business. As someone who comes from a non-business background, I received immense support from WEConnect International, including upskilling myself in business skills training programs conducted by Proctor & Gamble and Walmart,”

“WEConnect International made a difference in this trajectory, as it brought us closer to companies and to businesswomen with whom we are always exchanging ideas and experiences. Not to mention that being part of WEConnect International is like adding “5 stars” to our curriculum, generating great value for Transcury.”

““With small, simple tweaks, I’ve learned how to increase my impact when presenting,” Marianna shared. “I feel calmer, clearer and more in control.””

“The ease for the Corporate of dealing with a women-owned company that is capable and has made the self-investment cannot be underestimated,”

“This opportunity is a direct outcome of my attendance of the WEConnect International in South Africa Annual Conference held in April [2016] . In particular, Jean Chawapiwa, Executive Director of WEConnect International in South Africa is a powerful catalyst.”

“Ms. Law says, “Nicole at Johnson & Johnson has offered to share our story and services with the global J&J procurement team. We will spend more time developing relationships at Janssen and J&J, knowing that we now have a growing track record of successful engagements.””

““Since our inception, Metrix has been working in what I consider the most positive side of HR,” she says. “We aim to help people gain the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in the workplace. We work hard to do it in a way where employees enjoy their training and, if we are lucky, are inspired to continue learning. The skills gained often transcend a specific role and help people throughout their careers.””

““Thanks to the WEConnect International network, I am part of a community of Japanese women entrepreneurs,” Horiuchi notes. “We have opportunities to share and help each other out to grow and refine our businesses.””

““The cost savings that Communications Solutions UK have secured for our business have been important,” says Payal Choudhary, Enterprise operations coordinator. “But equally I value their friendly and helpful service. Over the years I have always been able to rely on a prompt response to my enquiries and working with Julie’s team is always a pleasant experience.””

“Knowing that there is a global network of women leading, supporting, and uplifting each other has been a source of both encouragement and empowerment.”

“It has provided more than opportunities—it has given us moral support, belonging, and resilience through a trusted network,”

“being WEConnect International certified brings me credibility and certainly helps to get buyers’ attention.”
