June was an especially inspiring and exciting month for Connected Women’s meetups as they held the biggest edition of this event last June 27 in 15 cities across four countries (Philippines, Singapore, Pakistan, and the UK). These cities were Baguio, Bohol, Cavite, Cagayan De Oro, Cebu, Iloilo, Lahore, Makati, Pampanga, Pagadian, Pasig, Quezon City, Singapore, and London. An estimated more than 350 women were able to form new communities, share stories, and learn more about entrepreneurship and freelancing that night.
