The HerMeNow Foundation was initiated by a woman entrepreneur who believes in women empowerment through social entrepreneurship.

The 2022 HerMeNow Accelerator, funded by the Stardust Concept ESG and Impact Division and implemented in partnership with Bloom, will bring training support to up to 30 women-led social enterprises in MENA+Africa in the initial phase and technical, financial, and mentorship support to 10 women-led social enterprises in the accelerator phase.
