EDITOR-IN-CHIEF ALISON TAY IS CREATING A PLATFORM FOR FEMALE BUSINESS LEADERS TO SHARE THEIR STORIES

Following ITP Media Group’s strategic partnership with UN Women – the United Nations entity dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women – we’re giving you the chance to nominate the female leaders in the region who inspire you to star in our Grazia Means Business series to celebrate International Women’s Day.

Grazia Means Business focuses on savvy female entrepreneurs whose companies have not just survived – rather, thrived – during the pandemic thanks to some creative tweaking and tinkering.

In keeping with the International Women’s Day 2021 theme: Women in leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world, we’re inviting you to post an image of the girl boss you’d like to put forward – or yourself! – on Instagram with the hashtag #GraziaMeansBusiness and the official hashtags #IWD2021 and #InternationalWomensDay telling us what about her leadership you find so inspiring in the past year. Don’t forget to tag @grazia_me and @unwomenarabic.

Editor-in-Chief Alison Tay reveals, “It’s a huge privilege to be working with UN Women towards a shared goal of promoting equality and positive representation for the women in the Middle East, and reinforcing the values that Grazia holds dear to our heart.”

Look out for our innovative season of Grazia Means Business self-development workshops with a focus on career progression and money management spanning both start-up and corporate culture, coming soon!
