Tämä on valtavasti apua minulle ja QUU Designille.

Olen valmis viemään QUU Designin seuraavalle tasolle. 

Olen ylpeä siitä, että olen #shesnextbyvisa." Iloitsee Heli Mäkiranta.

She’s Next, empowered by Visa, is a global initiative to support women in their

efforts to run, fund and grow their businesses.

Women who own and manage businesses have a unique set of challenges,

including access to capital and networks. Helping to support this

growing sector and address these barriers is why Visa launched She’s Next.

Since March 2020, She´s Next empowered by Visa has awarded more than

2,87 million dollars in grants and coaching scolarships

to women entrepreneurs across the globe.
