He said that PIAF is acknowledging and honoring the services of women entrepreneurs who are showing outstanding performance in their respective fields. He said that our aim is to present the eminent women who are known and recognized as high achievers so that our new generation can follow their footsteps. He said that PIAF would continue to promote such activities to encourage women entrepreneurs. He said that the economy cannot grow until women don’t utilize their potential for economic development of the country. This is possible only if they are empowered.
