H.E. Dr. Jihad Azour

Just to tell how impressed I was by the sixth annual session of NAWF. It was indeed an extremely interesting conference with excellent discussions. The quality of topics and speakers made this event very successful and contributed to enrich the debate on women's issues in the Middle East.

The group of presenters and panelists this year was very good, and I found the event successful and on topic. I commend you and your team for selecting such an excellent array of women and men leaders from across the region who shared their experiences and their views on the opportunities and challenges for women entrepreneurs in the Arab region. I wish you the best in future events.
