FutureFem 2.0 concludes
FutureFem 2.0, a six-month development program for young women,
has concluded with 100 participants completing training in
entrepreneurship, leadership and other key business skills. The
initiative was organized by the “Bir Könüllü” Students’ Cooperation
Public Union with the support of Azercell and in partnership with
Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University.
The program welcomed 92 students and eight graduates
representing 24 universities. Participants completed training in
entrepreneurship, financial literacy, digital marketing, project
management, leadership and communication, while also working with
mentors to turn their own business ideas into viable concepts.
The program culminated in a hackathon on August 28, with 10
shortlisted teams pitching their ideas to a panel of judges.
NovaHer was named the winner and awarded AZN
3,000. The second- and third-place teams will work with local
startups to continue developing their ideas.
FutureFem 2.0 was selected for support through “Empowering
lives: Women’s Support Program 2025,” Azercell’s social project
competition focused on women’s development and economic
empowerment. Through the program, Azercell supports initiatives
that equip women with practical skills, foster professional and
