History of the Business Women's Association
The Business Women’s Association in Lithuania was established on December 21, 2015. The founding agreement was signed by six individuals: Dr. Dalia Foigt-Norvaišienė, Vaida Balčiūnienė, Alma Ziziliauskienė, Rima Ingstad, Edita Mackevičienė, and Svetlana Zilinskienė.
The need to establish an official organization arose after several years of club-based activities, when connections were formed with similar organizations abroad, as well as a growing need to participate in projects promoting women’s entrepreneurship and personal development, and to share experience with aspiring entrepreneurs.
Business owners and top-level executives are invited to become members of the association—they may participate as individuals or represent a legal entity. The association is not limited to women-only membership; it is open to anyone who shares its recognized values and goals.
