Women in Business event taps into the power of community

Women-led businesses from the Asian Business Chamber of Commerce (ABCC) came together last month for an evening of networking and empowerment.

The event was part of the ABCC’s Women in Business network, which offers members access to inspirational guest speakers, tailored support, and a strong peer network.

Guest speaker Tammy Takker, CEO of Active Clinics, spoke about the importance of connection and conversation in empowering women.

She also shared her personal journey, shining a light on often overlooked topics such as menopause, hormonal health, mental wellbeing, and gut health.

Tammy said: “It’s always amazing to see how open, supportive, and curious women are when given a safe space to talk about important issues.

“It was an uplifting event that reminded us of the power of community. As women in business, it can often feel isolating, but when we come together—sharing experiences, ideas, and tips—we realise we're not alone.

“The energy in the room was empowering. Anjum and the team have done an incredible job in creating an inclusive and meaningful event.

“The venue was perfect, the format was engaging, and the attendees left feeling uplifted and inspired.

“Events like this are essential—not only for business growth but for personal and emotional wellbeing, especially among women balancing multiple roles.”

Monica Ghai, ABCC vice president who lead the event said: “I was delighted to host our fifth ABCC Women in Business event today which was focused upon women’s health and wellbeing.

“These events are aimed at our ABCC female members to support, share and gain valuable knowledge within a likeminded business community.

“I am so thrilled to be leading this on behalf of the ABCC and looking forward to our next series of events later this year.”
