Formed in 1954, the Association of German Women Entrepreneurs offers a platform for women in business. It is the personal contact between businesswomen from a wide range of industries that makes the Association an effective, vibrant network that draws its strength from the opportunities it offers women of all ages to discuss and share their experiences and competencies with those facing similar challenges.
On a political level, the VdU also strengthens women's role in the economy by representing the interests of around 1,800 businesswomen who account for annual sales of EUR 85 billion and 500,000 employees.
