The international group Costa Women brought together more than a hundred female entrepreneurs from various countries of origin on Friday 6th at the National Reference Centre for Hospitality and CIOMijas, all keen to learn and discover new work experiences. "Here we see many brave women who, despite the challenges, have fulfilled their dreams of entrepreneurship, also generating economic growth and creating jobs in our municipality and the rest of the Costa del Sol", said the mayoress of Mijas, Ana Mata (PP), who opened the event.
Under the title 'Make it happen', the meeting attracted the interest of up to 111 businesswomen, "and I am sure that many of them have not had it easy when it comes to starting a business, especially if they did not speak our language, but their efforts have brought them here today to this forum, a true example of real integration", said Mario Bravo (PP), councillor for Foreigners in Mijas, a department that also collaborated in organising the event.
This is the second year that Costa Women has held its annual series of conferences in Mijas, this time with a total of eight presentations. Georgina Shaw, MC of the event explained that "today's talks will cover different personal and business aspects so that, at the end of the day, all the participants will feel even more inspired, ready for action and for success".

In this regard, Kristiina Tahtinen, coordinator of event sponsor Mijas Natural, pointed out that these types of events "are very good for growing as a company and as an individual, to see what is happening in the business world or the latest trends in work tools, such as artificial intelligence".
The director of the National Reference Centre for Hospitality and CIOMijas, Raquel Hidalgo-Barquero, also shared her experience as an entrepreneur a few years ago, "at first it's hard to get people to know you, until you make a name for yourself and gain prestige, but it's hugely satisfying, and it really helps to connect with many other people in the business community".
Catalina Fernández also took advantage of this event to promote her company, Silverspring, which offers activities for people over 55, "such as hiking routes, cultural visits to Málaga, gastronomy and cinema sessions, and we even want to set up a choir for those who want to socialise with others".
