Owusua mentioned AWEC...
When Nana Owusua Boamah of SiGNATURE KITCHENS GH asked me to apply for the African Women Entrepreneurship Cooperative, I thought it was one of those applications. :) As an entrepreneur, one would usually fill a number of applications for all sorts of things; some end nowhere but we keep pushing. 😃 I am very certain that the application for Out of Eden Gh was one of the last the AWEC team received; close to midnight on the last day.
When I received the email below, I still didn't fully comprehend what we had signed up for!
"The African Women Entrepreneurship Cooperative (AWEC) is an innovative, 12-month, high-touch, business accelerator that meets a mini-MBA program. We have selected you to join a talented and highly qualified cohort of 200 AWEC Fellows chosen from more than 3,400 applicants and 49 countries."
Fast forward, a little over a year later, I am so glad that a last-minute move was made! Thank you, Owusua!
. The ripple effects of your 'one action' will bless many. One highlight for me has been the fact that there are various businesses across Africa, solving local problems while thinking globally; and it's inspiring on the fronts of all sectors of our nations.
'Ayekoo' to all entrepreneurs, especially the African ladies making a difference all around the world. Keep walking 👏 ... Keep making meaningful impact. There's enough room in the sky for each of us to shine; so - brighten the corner where you are! "We face neither East nor West; we face forward”― Kwame Nkrumah
