Caribbean Women in Leadership (CIWiL) Antigua and Barbuda has launched the third cohort of its Fempenure Fund Program, expanding opportunities for women entrepreneurs to strengthen and grow their businesses.

The initiative is being delivered in partnership with the Prime Minister’s Entrepreneurial Development Programme (EDP), the Inland Revenue Department and Intellectual Property & Commerce. Organizers said the collaboration underscores a shared commitment to supporting women-led enterprises and promoting sustainable economic growth across Antigua and Barbuda.

The programme is designed to provide women entrepreneurs with the knowledge, resources and support needed to build resilient and successful businesses, whether they are starting a new venture or expanding an existing one.

CIWiL said the launch of the third cohort reflects its continued mission of empowering women through leadership and entrepreneurship, noting that stronger businesses can have a lasting impact on families, communities and the wider economy.

“At CIWiL, we believe that when women succeed, families prosper, communities thrive, and nations grow stronger,” the organization said.
