Fabumin, a startup that has created a plant-based alternative to albumin, the protein found in egg whites.

The event also included an interactive and patented networking workshop that encouraged people to “give and take.” Participants shared their resources, skills, and connections with the community, contributing to each other’s success.

The CWI is an annual international entrepreneurship program for impactful women-led and women-owned businesses that provides necessary financial, social, and human capital support to grow their business and build their leadership skills.

Tech It Forward, the women-founded innovation hub that promotes Israeli startups through consulting and specialized events, hosted the event.

Founders of Tech It Forward, Jessica Rosner and Jennifer Elias, said: “We have been working with Cartier Women’s Initiative for a year now, and we are happy to drive change together and help the women impact community here in Israel.

“We are already seeing the benefits from their program, with women impact entrepreneurs reaching out to us, asking questions, and seeking support to be part of the next batch. The existence of this amazing program helps women in impact feel important, heard, and drives their ventures forward.”
