Mumbai: Franklin Templeton has launched "Women of Progress," a video campaign showcasing inspirational women who have broken barriers, overcome challenges, and achieved remarkable success in their respective fields.
The campaign created in collaboration with Mashable Middle East and being promoted by Mirum India, is aimed at showcasing the attributes of persistence, ambition, and innovation, that these successful women in the United Arab Emirates have embraced. It comprises four inspirational episodes, each centred around the journey of a remarkable woman who is the hallmark of progress in her field. Featuring women from various sectors like business and sports, these videos showcase the indelible impact these powerhouses have had on their respective industries.
These are our standout “Women of Progress”:
Curly Tales’ founder Kamiya Jani embodies the entrepreneurial spirit with her innovation and determination. Kamiya ventured into the unknown when she launched her food, travel, and lifestyle platform into the UAE market. Not content with merely creating a brand, Kamiya set out to establish a robust community where people could explore and share their love for travel, food, and unique experiences. Her story is one of innovation, showing how a hunger for growth and the willingness to take risks can lead to success in new markets.
Latifa Bin Haider began her journey towards empowering women at the young age of 19. To realise her dream of leaving a positive impact on society, she founded Baytukum, a platform designed to offer women the necessary resources and knowledge to thrive in real estate investment, fostering financial independence. Latifa's vision extends beyond just financial success; she is dedicated to creating a supportive community for women, guiding them towards personal and financial freedom.
The founder and CEO of MENA speakers, Saana Azzam, exemplifies unwavering resilience and ambition. Faced with the choice between her roles as a mother and entrepreneur, skillfully balanced both, defying societal expectations. Her journey highlights her determination to break free from society’s barriers and chart her own course to success, serving as an inspiration to many.
Brimming with passion for football since a young age, Areej Al Hammadi was determined to push aside society’s restrictive views about women in the sport, securing her place in the UAE women’s national team. Her story is a testament to overcoming societal barriers and pursuing one’s passion with determination, illustrating that true progress is made when we move beyond societal confines.
