From art and design to technology and innovation, the Orange Economy represents the intersection of creativity, culture, and economic growth. This new category underscores the commitment to:
- Fostering economic diversity
- Providing opportunities for women in emerging industries
- Empowering women in the creative sectors to shape a sustainable and inclusive future
A Platform for Empowerment and Recognition
