Women in Business Forums

The British Chamber of Commerce Taipei Women in Business (WiB) Forums bring together women and diversity advocates to discuss business issues, career progression, and network building. Since 2010, the BCCTaipei WiB community has provided an excellent opportunity to meet new people, share experiences, create critical business relationships, and advance professional careers. We are pleased of how far the Chamber has progressed under the leadership of a number of exceptional individuals.

Our goal is to become a vital contributor to the development of young talent through its training courses, development workshops, and mentorship programmes, as well as a major voice in climate action and gender diversity.


Mentorship Programme

The British Chamber of Commerce Taipei is proud to launch our Women in Business Mentorship Programme. Over a six-month period, 30 women will form a dedicated support network for professional and personal development. 30 mentors and 30 mentees will be selected and paired based on what they want to achieve and meet regularly to work towards those goals.  The process will be assisted and supported by the BCCTaipei Women in Business Committee.

The mentorship programme is one way that you can take tangible steps to build greater diversity in business by connecting and supporting women as Mentors, Mentees, and Sponsors.
