EmailHeld in Oeiras, the event was part of the annual As Vozes do Empreendedorismo Feminino, an inspiring gathering organised by our network partner Mulheres à Obra, with the support of Oeiras Valley Municipality. The 2024 theme, Women 5.0: Conexão, Inovação, Superação, Impacto, captured the essence of what women can achieve through entrepreneurship and collective empowerment.
Our Project Director, Angela Garcia Romero, presented key findings from our European survey, with a spotlight on Portugal. Her presentation offered insight into how Portuguese mothers are navigating work-life balance, access to support systems, and the push for more family-friendly policies in workplaces and beyond.
“This event was not just about unveiling data – it was about fueling a conversation on how we can support mothers to thrive as individuals, professionals, and change-makers,” said Angela.
We thank all those who joined us to celebrate the launch and contribute to a future where the voices of mothers shape real, lasting impact.
