If you missed registerting for this women’s conference, there’s still plenty of time to participate in Women’s Expo, 2006.

The official mission of the expo is to educate women, create interaction with brands [ed: women, after all, buy more than80% or more of all products, or influence end buyer decision], research and develop the social and economic contribution of women in society.

There are three main expo categories:
Women in person – about personal needs and lifestyle; health care, nutrition, fashion, etc.
Women in family – family and lifestyle products including recreation and entertainment
Women in society – exhibits relating to business, finance, social interaction, education

Publications are also planned around the conference.

Dates: April 13-16, 2006
Place: Expo Center, Hassan Square, Karachi
Organizers: Federal Ministry of Women Development, and 4th Dimension (Pvt.) Ltd.

Recommendation: High. While the website is busy-looking with clumsy language and navigation, the expo itself could provide an opportunity for women to learn, interact, and do business in an encouraging environment. With the growing numbers of women entrepreneurs who may be looking for education and contacts, this expo looks just in time. It’s a start! Plus the conference has an organizer profile worth trusting. The only concern: too much seems to be planned for a first women’s expo. It could get hectic if not confusing. Pick and choose your involvement carefully. If you’re an exhibitor, then with a fore-plan, this could be a good opportunity to promote your new idea!
