Many women struggle to find balance between their careers and family care in Taiwan. According to government data in 2022, there are 15.9% ( 330,000) of women left their jobs to care for their children or other family members. Without their personal income, they may become more reliant on economic resources from their partners or husbands. Consequently, they lose confidence and social networks, hindering their personal growth and causing them to forget the talents they have already acquired.
The digital social entrepreneurship startup program aims to support women in rebuilding their confidence and social networks to further launch their social enterprises or projects. As we know, the digital world has become an essential channel for connecting people and generating both monetary and social values. We have created a unique digital framework to support individuals from developing ideas to launching their businesses
This program consists of eight online workshops, and all sessions will be recorded for your convenience. You can revisit the content within one year. Each week will cover a specific topic with an assignment to guide you in expressing your own ideas. In the final stage, you will also have 1-2-1 mentoring sessions to finalize your business plan and digital strategy.
After completing this course, you can continue to join the online forum to discuss your ideas and problems with your peers and fellows. We believe that collective efforts can make things bigger and more wonderful.
