During the implementation of the She’s Next, empowered by Visa programme in Montenegr, carried out with the support of NLB Banka and the implementation partner Digitalizuj.me, more than 1,500 women have participated in the programme over the past two years.

The programme has brought hundreds of inspiring entrepreneurial stories, new knowledge, and strong professional and personal connections, confirming how strong, active, and connected the community of women entrepreneurs is today.

In addition to knowledge, contacts, and community support, this competition provides the opportunity to win €2,000 to support business development, including investments in equipment, marketing, product development, or team strengthening.

As part of the VISA She’s Next project, a call has been launched for three grants of €2,000 each, intended for women entrepreneurs from Montenegro wishing to improve and strengthen their businesses.

The initiative’s mission is to provide women with education, mentorship, and resources necessary to start and grow their businesses. 

The project was launched in 2019 and has since been successfully implemented in many countries around the world, supporting thousands of women entrepreneurs in developing their ideas and businesses.

As a global leader in digital payments, Visa connects consumers, businesses, and institutions in more than 200 countries and territories, enabling secure and fast digital payments that drive economic growth.
