According to the official data, only 13% per cent of women in Kosovo have started their own business. With the goal of rising this percentage, the Agency for Investments and Support to Companies, which operates under the auspices of the Ministry of Trade and Industry, in cooperation with the NGO “Women in Business”, is organizing a three day fair of the women entrepreneurship. The goal of the fair is integration of women in the society, promotion and expanding of women entrepreneurship.
“The fair will gather this year around 60 women who are coming from all over Kosovo and from all communities. Developing a business in Kosovo is difficult for women representatives from all communities, however it is more difficult for women coming from minority communities due to small number of investments,” said Hamide Latifi from the NGO.
The fair will kick-off on 28 July in downtown pedestrian zone in Pristina.
