Wema Bank trains women entrepreneurs on business growth – Wema Bank Plc is supporting women entrepreneurs with free virtual training sessions on business growth and sustainability.
The first of these sessions focused on helping professional and businesswomen “restructure their business, career and finances for the future”.
A virtual webinar tagged “Juggling Home Schooling & Work”, was designed to cater to the women with children who were working from home amid the pandemic.
In partnership with Wise Planner Consulting, Sara By Wema selected women through a competition on its Instagram page @sarabywema and other online platform for a webinar themed “Business Growth”.
To help women with online stores generate more sales on Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, Sara by Wema partnered Divigate360 for the “Boost With Facebook” event.
