ALBAWABA - Hollywood icon Jada Pinkett Smith will be heading to Abu Dhabi in November to hold a Red Table Talk-like event with women entrepreneurs from Abu Dhabi and emirates across the UAE.
The event is Jada's first stop in the Middle East as part of her world tour to promote her biography memoir "Worthy". In various interviews, Smith has described her book as an intimate peek at her life and discovering self-worth.
She hopes that 'Worthy' will also help in clearing misconceptions about her life and rumors about her major relationships.
"I'm thrilled to celebrate the incredible spirit of Abu Dhabi's businesswomen. I'm eager to intertwine our stories, exchange ideas, and explore new horizons of storytelling for Westbrook, Inc. in the capital city of the UAE. In every endeavor and story, we are all Worthy and I look forward to having unforgettable conversations at this event,” said Pinkett Smith in a statement.
Alongside Jada Pinkett Smith, Souad Al Serkal, CEO of CommCation Consultancy and Sarah Omolewu, co-founder of Maven Global Access will be co-hosting the event aiming to inspire young women especially young Arab women to follow the pursuit of becoming who they aspire to be.
"This event beautifully highlights the synergy between Maven Global Access and 'Worthy's' mission - to commend what women entrepreneurs are capable of when given opportunities and access, and the strength in unity and community," said Omolewu commenting on the event.
Additional tour dates in the Middle East as well as ticket details of the Abu Dhabi event will be posted soon.
