Origin, Evolution

It was created to answer the needs of immigrant women of varied educational backgrounds to generate income.


The Colombia Nos Une "Mesa de Mujeres" initiative from the Colombian Consulate in Toronto originated to support women, historically the primary breadwinners in Latin American households.


In conjunction with the Colombian Consulate (2017 to 2021) under its international Colombia Nos Une arm, our Business Training Program has evolved to cater to the evolving needs of our audience, thus creating different theoretical and practical courses for Women, Latin American Immigrants and Entrepreneurs in general. Below you'll find interchangeable modules and topics we have covered over the years.


Our feature Business Training program delivers "Business Strategies for Entrepreneurs" over eight weeks.
