The Chamber of Commerce of Lanzarote and La Graciosa, through the Enterprise Europe Network, held the event 'Building Bridges, Creating Future' on September 17th, aimed at women entrepreneurs and professionals from the islands.

The initiative, developed in collaboration with the Association of Women Entrepreneurs and Professionals of Lanzarote (Atria Lanzarote), aimed to provide the business community with available resources and opportunities for project development, innovation, growth, and internationalization. The Enterprise Europe Network is the largest international network supporting business expansion.
During the event, the services of the Enterprise Europe Network, various European programs and opportunities, and other resources from the Chamber of Commerce were presented. These included the Club Cámara and the Canarias Expande and Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programs. The latter, offered by the Technological Institute of Canarias, facilitates international stays for entrepreneurs to consolidate their business projects with guidance from experienced business people.
The meeting provided a space for participants to share their experiences of entrepreneurship from Canarias. Networking dynamics were promoted to foster synergies among attendees and present organizations, reinforcing the Enterprise Europe Network's commitment to female entrepreneurship, a key area of its action.
Through this initiative, the Chamber of Commerce of Lanzarote and La Graciosa, together with the Enterprise Europe Network and with financial support from the Island Council of Lanzarote, continues to bring resources, contacts, and growth opportunities to companies in its jurisdiction, while strengthening collaboration with the business sector of the Islands.
