As the founder of the West Indian Diaspora Initiative (WIDI), it is an honour to bring attention to the vital role Caribbean entrepreneurs play in driving socioeconomic growth within our communities. Through WIDI, I am committed to fostering entrepreneurship, innovation, and collaboration, creating opportunities for Caribbean businesses to thrive globally.This is a very exciting opportunity to showcase the immense potential of our region, and I look forward to highlighting how initiatives like WIDI are leading the charge in entrepreneurship, business development, and community empowerment.” says Deborah St.Luce.
