The 8th annual conference is held in Washington DC for the purpose of providing opportunities for Afghan firms and to improve business relationships. This year Roya Mahboob, a young Afghan female entrepreneur, who is the founder of Afghan Citadel Software Company participated in this conference as well.
Roya Mahboob and her partner in Film Annex are taking great steps to support and empower Afghan women not only in education but in economy as well by building Internet classroom in Afghanistan and providing social media curriculum.
School girls will learn how to use social media networking platforms and build their own profiles, they will start writing blogs and sharing it with others, therefore based on their Buzz Score they will get paid. In this way we encourage female students to be more active and build their own financial state.
Considering all these projects in Afghanistan, the next step is to expand our vision about Examer software for Bangladesh, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, and the rest of Central Asia and connect all the students in a unique platform.
