Ms Maryrose Francica - General Secretary

After finishing her education, Maryrose held a managerial position with a leading local Company where she was responsible for the smooth running of the administration. She then moved to managing the family business for eleven years where again she mostly dealt with the administrative side of the business as well as the added function of sourcing out foreign contacts. These proved to be vital for her role within the Foundation for Women Entrepreneurs. Her leadership skills, self motivation and the ability to communicate well always made her an automatic choice to sit on various committees regarding current issues. Maryrose speaks native Maltese and English and is also fluent in French, Italian and the deaf sign language and lip reading. During her course of work Maryrose represented FWE at various conferences and events related to several European programmes in Malta and abroad. The promotion of the role of women in society, gender issues and gender equality were always of great interest to her.
