Are you one of these women? Maybe it’s that terms like ‘cloud’, ‘pop servers’ and ‘big data’ are mystery to you? Or that you have a feeling you’re just not leveraging productivity tools, or not as e-commerce savvy as you could be? We recognise that women are developing businesses of huge potential, but what holds us back is access to the right training, information and tools. This is why we started Connected Women - a community dedicated to driving technology adoption within women-led businesses and startups. We’ve partnered with StarHub and Microsoft to launch the first ever Connected Women “Powering Women in Business” event to bring the latest and most practical elements of technology to women in business. And we have an amazing line-up for you - including Keynote speakers Jessica Tan, Managing Director of Microsoft SG and Pak Lum Mock CTO of StarHub. How much?
