Sapphire Real Estate Services Launch – A success story from Malta

On Friday, 30th September, 2011 Angele Giuliano and Maryrose Francica representing The Foundation for Women Entrepreneurs proudly attended the launch of a new business – Sapphire Real Estate Services. This business start up is the brainchild of Ms. Jane Chircop, one of the ladies who attended our first mentoring circle™, which were introduced in Malta through the Fe:male project of which The Foundation for Women Entrepreneurs is a partner.The launch took place at Il-Cortile, a converted farmhouse that is now used for social events to tie in with the theme of Sapphire Real Estate Services itself. Sapphire Real Estate Services deals with traditional houses of character, Palazzos and converted Farmhouses. The launch started with a keynote speech from Jane Chircop herself where she thanked everyone for attending and gave a presentation on the aims and objectives of her business. Then Jane introduced Maryrose Francica and thanked her for giving her the chance to attend the mentoring circle™. Jane fitted the DD criteria as she is a single mother.

Maryrose, in turn introduced the Fe:male project to the audience present and explained the concept of the Mentoring Circles™. A time for Q & A’s was allocated and some of the women present asked questions about the Fe:male project and the Mentoring Circles™. Afterwards a reception was held and the discussion continued on an informal level.  The Foundation for Women Entrepreneurs is very pleased and proud that from the first Mentoring Circle™ which gave the chance to seven women with a double disadvantage to attend, three of them realised their dream and opened their own business. The Foundation for Women Entrepreneurs is looking forward to the next cycle of the Mentoring Circles™ which will take place in February, 2012.
