The WLIN Global Forum is an annual event organised by the Women Leaders International Networking (WLIN), under the direction of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and with the companion of Pro Image academy run by Nam Huong Media & Event. During the past five years, the forum has laid positive effects among the local and international business communities, affirming the vision of women in the new era – which is that women can rise and assert themselves in the role of leaders.
The programme has received a warm response and participation of numerous female leaders from all over the world, as well as experts in various fields. The issues mentioned in the forum are analysed and discussed in multiple perspectives, thereby bringing a comprehensive picture of various topics, such as women’s leadership in business, young female leaders - successes and challenges and leadership without borders.
