Founder’s Message
Mrs. Philomena Yamoah
I believe that when women are given the right connections, knowledge, exposure, and opportunities, they can build businesses that cross borders, lead with confidence, and create lasting impact.
Women Global Travel and Business Network (WGTBN) was founded from a desire to create more than another networking platform. My vision is to build a structured global community where women can develop themselves, grow their businesses, form meaningful partnerships, explore new markets, and gain international exposure.
Too often, talented and ambitious women have the potential to grow but lack access to the right networks, information, mentorship, markets, or opportunities. WGTBN seeks to help bridge that gap.
Through our programs, business networks, leadership initiatives, trade missions, strategic partnerships, and global chapters, we aim to create pathways that enable women at different stages of their journeys to connect, learn, collaborate, and expand.
As we build this network, our focus will remain on substance, professionalism, integrity, and measurable value for our members. We want WGTBN to be a place where relationships lead to opportunities, learning leads to growth, and global exposure opens new possibilities.
Whether you are an entrepreneur, professional, executive, emerging leader, institution, or organization that believes in advancing women, I invite you to be part of what we are building.
Together, we can connect across borders, expand possibilities, and create opportunities that reach far beyond ourselves.
FOUNDER & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
“Expansion is not about leaving home.
It is about being able to trade everywhere and still belong somewhere.”
