Women in Entrepreneurship
This US State Department-sponsored International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) is for seven female entrepreneurs from Saudi Arabia and their U.S. State Dept. interpreters who visited Detroit to examine Women in Entrepreneurship.
The delegation's program in Detroit, MI provided security leaders an opportunity to explore various business models, learn about support mechanisms and innovations such as micro‑lending, multi‑level marketing, the use of the internet, and others.

The opportunity to welcome and work with international delegations visiting Detroit provides a very rich experience. To be engaged in this work is significant and very rewarding. The world is becoming smaller every day and Global Ties Detroit contributes greatly in building strong bridges with people and nations across the globe.
