The Abu Dhabi Businesswomen Council (ADBWC), a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry, organized a Ramadan Suhoor event that brought together businesswomen in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, and highlighted the diverse talents and skills of female entrepreneurs in various fields and sectors.

Each touchpoint and experience as part of the Suhoor was in collaboration with ADBWC’s members, from the host venue through to flowers and guest gifting, reinforcing its continued commitment and support to its female entrepreneurs.

The Suhoor gathering underscored the pivotal role of female entrepreneurs in shaping the future of businesses, industries and innovation. Prominent figures attended the event, engaging in networking, sharing insights, and celebrating the remarkable contributions of women in the business world.

The event, which took place in the presence of the Chairwoman of the Abu Dhabi Businesswomen Council, Asma Al Fahim, and Board Members Marwa Al Mansoori, and Noor Al Tamimi; and ADBWC’s Director Fatima Al Blooshi, was an interactive platform that promoted constructive communication and the exchange of experiences between female entrepreneurs at the level of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.
