Women today have all the skills and talent to move ahead in life and they should make the most use of it, US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said at CNBC-TV18's Future Female Forward initiative, which was held a day after the International Women's Day celebrations.
"I would just say that so many of us have paved the way for you. And I want to tell you that you have all the talent, skills, and education to go forward. And whatever path you choose — government, journalism, business — do something. Not for yourself, but because of what you have to contribute to the world," Raimondo said, as she addressed the women sitting in the room.
"I'm excited to be here during International Women's Week," she said, adding she had met several women entrepreneurs and hopes to enter a new era of increased trade.
