WERK (Women Entrepreneurs Resource Kit) celebrated its official launch on 15 February at Hatch, Colombo. The well-attended launch event brought together over 100 invitees, all interested in the new platform's mission of unlocking the combined power of female entrepreneurs and corporate women in Sri Lanka, with the larger goal of creating massive economic and social progress.
In addition to a series of engaging networking sessions and demonstrations, co-founder Yusra Aziz-Eliyas introduced the one-of-a-kind online community, and encouraged companies to join its pool of corporate affiliations that already provide resources for its members in the form of educational workshops, networking events, mentoring programs, volunteer and employment opportunities, career services and support, and much more.
