I’m honoured to share that my latest article has been featured on Top Business Women.
In this piece, I unpack why Enterprise and Supplier Development (ESD) is not just a compliance requirement, but a critical lever for transforming women-owned businesses and driving real economic inclusion.

If you are serious about building sustainable businesses and unlocking opportunities for women, this is a conversation we need to keep having.
