At the SLS hotel in Dubai, Logitech and Women Choice introduced ‘LogiConnect’ on April 28, 2024. This innovative regional platform is dedicated to empowering women in IT across the UAE and the Middle East, aligning with Logitech’s ethos of connecting people to digital experiences. By nurturing a supportive community, LogiConnect aims to provide women with invaluable resources and networking opportunities to advance their careers in the ever-evolving tech industry. It represents a significant step towards gender equality and inclusivity, heralding a new era of empowerment and collaboration in the realm of technology.
Loubna Imenchal, VP / Head of Enterprise Business, Logitech AMECA (Africa, Middle East, Central Asia) said “I feel incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to use my position of leadership at Logitech to launch a meaningful initiative. Our goal is to bridge the gap for women in the tech industry, empowering them to step into leadership roles with confidence. Through our ‘Women’s Choice’ program, we provide guidance and support, creating a supportive community where women can grow and thrive. Our ultimate aim is to foster a tech industry that is more inclusive and diverse, benefiting everyone involved”
Nezha Alaoui, the Founder and CEO of Women Choice, is a seasoned entrepreneur and social innovator. With a passion for creating impactful solutions, she has pioneered unique strategies to enhance women’s employment opportunities throughout the Middle East and Africa region. Her visionary leadership and dedication have propelled Women Choice to the forefront of gender empowerment initiatives, making a tangible difference in the lives of countless women.
“When Loubna and I discussed ways to further support the women in IT in the United Arab Emirates and the whole Middle East region, we realized that there were plenty of great initiatives but something was missing, a community to link women in IT together, regardless of the role, seniority or city they live in. With ‘LogiConnect’, we want to create a safe space for women in IT to come forward with their concerns, questions and receive support to navigate their careers and the industry. I am truly excited to see all these joint initiatives between Women Choice and key players from the region come to life, knowing it will help create a lasting impact” said Nezha Alaoui, Founder & CEO of Women Choice.
