Boost Female Entrepreneur, Impact Globally
With more than a decade of experience, WPC has supported over 18,000 women in small businesses ventures and has successfully built around 1,700 small business brands owned by local women through our trusted business incubation program, IWPC. We believe that fostering small-scale business is a real and effective way to contribute to the improvement of Indonesia.
From the IWPC class, I learned a lot about how to plan a mature, established & classy SME business. We still use the knowledge I gained at IWPC 13 in 2018 as a basis for my business with developments from further training that we took from various sources. Thank God, several goals, including the mission written during Mr. Dion's class (in 2018), are slowly starting to show results, because we (me & the team) are trying to be committed (not changing the business concept) even though there are many "storms" that have to be overcome. For me, WPC is a family that really supports my business in terms of business knowledge, motivation to develop, including nudging me hard when I do something that is inappropriate/deviant. In my experience, at the beginning it really made me irked (especially since I'm really from Jogja, Java), but over time this became normal, including when I met customers or competitors who were badmouthing our business, making me "don't think too much about" what other people said. (which makes our spirits down).
