Armenia : Institute promotes aspiring lady entrepreneurs
October 27, 2006
Armenia Small and Medium Enterprise Market Development Project has
organized the `Armenian Woman in Business 2006' trade exhibition,
with financial support from USAID in Yerevan.
Women are more than half the population in Armenia and they have to
contribute to economic development of the country with their creative
and flexible ideas.
Organization aims mainly at creating new jobs, supporting small
enterprises through various kinds of consultancy to help them to
improve sales.
Sixty businesswomen from different regions of Armenia are showing
samples of their vocation in textile/clothing, handicraft, carpet,
consultancy and other activities.
There were just 49 enterprises representing their businesses at the
exhibition last year.
Traditional mentality in Armenia may reject the notion of woman in
business but the Armenian women manages to combine those two things
in a way that they complement each other instead of interfering with
one another.
Women entrepreneurs believe it will be a challenge but not impossible
to change the traditional image and role of woman in Armenia.
