It is important for new entrepreneurs to set and start implementing their long-term priorities\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, the Director of PYDOZ, Salmin Botea, said the aim of her organisation was to show how important women are in the society and the roles they play to the country\u2019s development.<\/p>\n<p>Participants to the event said the festival provided an opportunity to learn and develop their talents as well as improve networking.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Aliyeh Salum, a soap producer, said the gathering with people who had much experience in business, helped her to acquire more ideas on how to deal with challenges and move forward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
