In celebration of women’s contributions to international relations, Ms. Sofia Kounenaki Efraimoglou, President of the Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry, was recently acknowledged at the Sisters Cities International (SCI) reception in Washington D.C. The event, which commemorated the UN International Day for Women in Diplomacy, honored Efraimoglou alongside Her Excellency, Oksana Markarova, the Ukrainian Ambassador to the United States.

During her acceptance speech, Efraimoglou expressed deep gratitude to her hosts, she outlined her commitment to empowering women entrepreneurs, a vital but often under-resourced group in international diplomacy. “We try to not only help our member enterprises but also be by their side for their extroversion,” Efraimoglou stated. She described the Chamber’s efforts in hosting delegations, exploring investment opportunities, and promoting diversity and inclusion, especially for small and women-led businesses.
