The union seeks to strengthen communication around the "Chile Creando Futuro" campaign with a gender focus, collaborating in the positioning of Chilean women entrepreneurs with innovative and purposeful projects.

As part of the work carried out by Imagen de Chile to highlight and value the creative spirit and thus enhance the country's image, a collaboration agreement was signed with the academy "Her Global Impact", in order to promote entrepreneurship and projects led by women in Chile.

The academy, which has leading strategic partners such as Singularity University, Goldman Sachs and Amazon, is an online digital innovation program aimed at women, which aims to provide different tools and inputs so that they can work and lead projects related to the digital world.

"We are proud as an organization to help Latina women begin a profound process of professional reconversion, giving them the tools to lead, transform and create the organizations of the 21st century," said Barbara Silva, president and creator of Her Global Impact.

The agreement is part of the new Country Image 2020-2030 strategy called "Chile Creating the Future", which seeks to promote national talent, highlighting its role as agents of change both regionally and internationally, and how inventiveness and innovation seek to provide solutions to global problems.

Her Global Impact Challenge

During the event, the executive director of Imagen de Chile, Constanza Cea, was invited to be part of the jury for the final of the "Her Global Impact Challenge", which will take place on July 2.

The event, to which 3 finalists are presented, will allow the winning project to obtain a scholarship to study at INSEAD, Singapore, a Social Enterprises program. The jurors include: Luis Puchol Plaza, director of Goldman Sachs for Latin America; Alex Harasic, director of Ecosystems at Amazon Web Services; Gabriela Salvador, entrepreneur and CEO of Vantrust; and Eduardo Romo, general manager of Fundación Mustakis.
