ASSOCIATIONS / EVENTS

“After the success achieved in Mexico, during the renowned MIP Cancun 2019 event, the women’s organization of the industry convokes the Networking Lunch at NATPE.”

Throughout the world, women’s organizations emerge to energize and promote the growth of women in all aspects that contribute to their reality and opportunity for equality against men, who for centuries have maintained power in civic, business, political, religious, economic and social aspects. With these motivations was born, Worldwide Audiovisual Women Association (WAWA).

The success of the first Business Networking Breakfast on November 22nd in the framework of MIP Cancun 2019, carried out in collaboration with the French group Reed MIDEM, was only the beginning of all the successful activities scheduled for the future of the organization.

Expectations were exceeded thanks to the participation and contribution of each of the WAWA affiliates. María Elena Useche, President of High Hill Entertainment and part of the WAWA Board of Directors, was the host of the event. The opening speech was given by the director of MIPCANCUN Benedicte Touchard.

 

The breakfast was attended by more than 120 executives, distributed in tables of 8 people and each with its respective “Mentoring Leader” with a topic and information on the topic to talk, thus becoming the desired: a space for discussion of new ideas and where they all participated.
