Asma, a 23 year old businesswoman from Kabul, Afghanistan, has brought new ideological thought to the way business is done in her country. After the Taliban’s rule came to an end in Afghanistan, Asma began thinking of ways to empower women in her newly liberated home country.
She first reached out to several services providers and entrepreneurs, but quickly she realized that most of them had no idea what systematic business training was. Seeing this, Asma started a small business development firm, which provides BDS (Business Development Services) to growing and budding businesses.
Asma feels that this is the best way she can help her country and her fellow countrywomen.
“I started BDS training [in hopes] of establishing many business associations for women. I want to help them generate income and help men and women [alike].”
