About the Program
The American University in Cairo partnered with the Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania, to develop and deliver the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women Entrepreneurship & Leadership Program. The objective of the program is to increase the number of underserved women in developing countries receiving business and management education. The most outstanding program graduates are then offered additional services such as Experts in Residence and Mentoring. We are currently recruiting volunteers from the business community, who would be available as experts for advice in the different business fields and sectors (such as marketing, finance, trade and manufacturing etc.)
