We wish to thank you for your interest in participating in the planned International Women’s Empowerment Summit (IWES), which was postponed in the aftermath of Hurricane Matthew. We must now advise that, although we had intended to reschedule the event for later this year, we have regretfully accepted the need to cancel the Summit, in the face of other pressing challenges and priorities.

Therefore, we have initiated the refund of all paid registration fees to participants through Cvent. Processing is expected to take between three and seven days, depending on your bank. Please let us know if you do not receive the expected transfer to the card with which you originally registered.

Again, we thank you for your patience and consideration, as we worked through our issues, and we apologise for any inconvenience that may have been caused. We will nevertheless continue to support women and their empowerment in The Bahamas and around the world, although we are disappointed that we will not be able to host this Summit.

Thank you again for your support of this initiative.
