Women In Action & AWA WISE

Women In Action is a new enrichment series designed to bring diverse individuals together and highlight incredible initiatives led by women championing social changes across Hong Kong. 

Each event provides a unique opportunity for guests to advance their own project through networking and collaboration among leaders of charitable organizations, sustainable businesses and community programs, who share insights on how to break barriers and thrive in their fields.

AWA WISE is a year-round program of events for professional women in Hong Kong in different stages of their career. These monthly events bring together networking, skills, and mindset building under one roof.
