Within the EIT Food EWA Programme we, the POZI.io team continue to work on supporting female entrepreneurs in Hungary. We are announcing the second Masterclass event, which follows the first Masterclass and the Matchmaking events.

We aim to empower women in agrifood through the second Masterclass event. Based on the experiences that we had during the previous months’ mentoring sessions, we give the participants another learning and skill improvement opportunity.

The program will be colorful, and the mentees will have the chance for listening to agrifood experts in a roundtable, and have rapid mentoring.

We believe that this second Masterclass event gives the chance mentees and provides them the opportunity to develop and to enhance strengthening the necessary skills to gain, maintain, and advance in the agrifood area, like networking, building new business relationships, elevator pitching, presenting their business idea to unfamiliar people, asking feedback and receiving advice from agrifood experts, getting new impression and perspectives about the actual situation of the agrifood sector at national and international level also.
