The Foundation offers different types of mentoring services designed to help different types of business owners. The mentoring programmes are designed to help individual entrepreneurs develop their knowledge, ability and confidence to build stronger, high growth, more sustainable businesses. We can offer our clients practical advice on business planning assistance, problem solving for business challenges and identify growth strategies for business opportunities.

The FWE can help them look at the "big picture", and to take stock of where their business is at and may identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that they have missed. We will help them refocus on their business goals and offer advice on strategies to better achieve them.The Foundation is also part of AFAEMME (Association of Organisations of Mediterranean Businesswomen), MCWO (The Malta Confederation of Women Organisations), EWL (The European Women's Lobby), MEDITER Network, an economic and social network between all countries around the Mediterranean basin and the EMPOWER Platform under the patronage of H.E.
