    Ambassador Romanowski and USAID Iraq Mission Director Elise Jensen visited ComputIQ at the Hub200 center, to celebrate International Women's Day at the graduation ceremony of entrepreneurs from the USAID-funded Microenterprises Empowerment Program (LaunchPad), including many women.

    The program enabled 22 entrepreneurs to overcome business growth constraints, particularly business registration and access to technologies and finance. Certificates were awarded to eight dedicated participants who demonstrated remarkable growth and innovation during the program.

    USAID’s support doesn't end here; we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive business community with local partners like ComputIQ/Hub200. Today and every day, USAID strives to empower youth and women by building their business skills to foster economic prosperity in Iraq.
