The Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry has reconstituted a new board for the Abu Dhabi Business Women Council (ADBWC).

The move is part of the chamber of commerce’s efforts to support businesswomen and women entrepreneurs in the emirate, in order to help them increase their contribution to the capital city’s economy.

“The new board will have a mandate to help women entrepreneurs refine their skills; introduce them to the applicable laws and policies; and help them learn how to benefit from the local and federal governmental initiatives and incentives to name a few,” it said in an emailed statement.

Furthermore, ADBWC chairwoman Asma Al Fahim stated that the council will implement a “new strategy” to empower and increase women’s pioneering roles in the Abu Dhabi business sector.

Al Fahim added: “Over the past fifty years, the UAE has placed women empowerment amongst its top priorities and supported the Emirati woman to be a key partner in building the UAE.”

The ADBWC’s board of directors included members of the Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and successful Abu Dhabi businesswomen such as Nour Al Tamimi, Dr. Khadija Al Ameri, Marwa Al Mansouri, and Sheikha Al Nuwais.

Al Fahim also thanked Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, Chairwoman of the General Women’s Union, Chairwoman of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood, Supreme Chairwoman of the Family Development Foundation, and Honorary Chairwoman of the ADBWC.

“Thanks to Her Highness Sheikha Fatima, the Emirati woman is now equipped with all the factors of success to occupy her proper place regionally and internationally,” she said.

Al Fahim went on to say that the ADBWC will increase its communication with businesswomen in the capital city in order to keep them up to date on the latest economic developments.

The council will also launch new initiatives and programs “to support the business environment and to equip women entrepreneurs with all the necessary tools that allow them to benefit from all business opportunities in the local, regional, and international markets,” according to the statement.
