Empowering Entrepreneurs
MENAWEF
Building economic bridges between businesswomen in the U.S. and the Middle East and North Africa
For many small businesses, success depends on access to the global market. MENA WEF was created to build economic bridges between the U.S. and the Middle East and North African (MENA) region. Entrepreneurs and small business owners in this MENA region have ideas and aspirations to develop products or services that can generate income, but often lack access to business skills, capital, market data and the network to successfully sell their products and services.
MENA WEF’s goal is to connect entrepreneurs and small business owners in the MENA region with American and Arab-American business owners to share experience and foster success in the global marketplace.
Where is MENA?
Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates and Yemen
(*Some organizations consider Afghanistan, Pakistan and Sudan to be a part of MENA)
