WomHub Partners with Visa Foundation to Launch "STEM is Everywhere" Program


The South African organization WomHub has partnered with the Visa Foundation to launch the "STEM is Everywhere" program, aimed at empowering and supporting early-career women entrepreneurs in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, mining, and manufacturing).

WomHub, a leading organization focused on empowering women in STEM, strives to promote a diversified and inclusive engineering and technology sector through education, mentorship, and support initiatives.

The "STEM is Everywhere" program will provide women entrepreneurs with business resources, mentorship, and access to WomHub's innovation hubs and networks. This partnership between WomHub and the Visa Foundation aims to bridge the gender gap and unlock the potential of women entrepreneurs in South Africa.

Anjani Harjeven, CEO of WomHub, stated: "This initiative aligns with our mission to empower women and girls in STEM, eliminate barriers, and create opportunities for the next generation of women leaders."

The program will support approximately 100 entrepreneurs in South Africa.
