Emerging Europe Partners with Visa to Launch She's Next Digital Community Platform for Female Entrepreneurs

Emerging Europe, a prominent growth center with extensive knowledge of the region, has joined forces with Visa on 3^rd July 2023, to introduce the She's Next digital community platform.

This platform aims to empower female entrepreneurs hailing from Eastern and Southeastern Europe, Central Asia, and the Caucasus by fostering networking, experience sharing, and global business growth opportunities.

Under the project name She's Next Empowered by Visa, the collaboration seeks to build a community of ambitious and like-minded women, according to Vira Platonova, Senior Vice President of Visa and Group Country Manager for 17 nations. Platonova emphasizes that the initiative is not only about empowerment but also about creating a space where businesswomen can connect and thrive together.

Visa and Emerging Europe conducted a poll of female company owners from the aforementioned regions in 2022, which unveiled an overwhelming interest in joining a global network of entrepreneurs. As a response to this demand, the She's Next digital community platform was developed to enable the exchange of best practices, mutual learning, and leadership development. It is expected to revolutionize the way businesswomen in Armenia and the rest of the region conduct their business endeavors.

The She's Next digital community platform provides a wealth of resources accessible to all interested individuals. Its website offers valuable insights into leadership, successful female entrepreneurs, motivation, and practical skills. Regular updates featuring content in collaboration with Emerging Europe, such as podcasts, interviews, OpEds, and articles, provide helpful advice from professionals spanning various sectors.

The platform welcomes participation from women at all stages of entrepreneurship, including start-up founders and those already running successful businesses. By fostering connections and providing valuable resources, the She's Next digital community platform aims to empower female entrepreneurs and contribute to their continued success.
