I am very pleased to have been invited to become one of the core team members of this new network.  So far we have had a ‘soft launch’ of the group, holding 2 ‘After work’  networking events in May and June which attracted over 50 women to each!  If you are a women living in Qatar, and whether you are employed professionally or employed in the home and want to network with other professional women, then please look out for news of future events on the LinkedIn or Facebook Group.

Further details below:

Qatar Professional Women’s Network (QPWN) is an informal networking group for Qatari and expatriate professional women. QPWN was launched by Christina Zini, with support from several other expatriate women living in Doha.

QPWN aims to support the development of future women leaders and contribute to the sustainability of the local community by:

• Helping its members expand their networks
• Refine their professional capabilities, and
• Benefit from cross-cultural sharing.

QPWN is open to any woman regardless of nationality, profession, age, or educational background, including students, freelancers and part-time workers. Women who are currently not working outside the home and would like to maintain their professional network and skills are also welcome to join QPWN.

QPWN offers regular events, which include networking, keynote speakers and panel discussions. Participation in QPWN events is on a pay-by-event basis (no membership fees), and is supported purely by volunteers’ time and contributions.

To become a member, please email qatarpwn@gmail.com, or become a fan of Qatar Professional Women’s Network on Facebook and/or Linked In. Membership is restricted to women only.
