OWIT UK is a business membership organisation for women and men working in all facets of international trade, designed to promote the advancement of women in trade and business.

The OWIT UK Chapter is part of OWIT International, the global umbrella organisation for chapters independently established in specific geographic regions. OWIT Chapters are formed, governed, and operated at the local level. 

OWIT Chapters host programs, activities and events enabling their members to learn and share, network and forge professional relationships in their business communities that enable them to trade internationally.

As a global organisation, we facilitate, connect and collaborate. We are a conduit, between other Business Support Organisations, local governments, private industry and women entrepreneurs. We are in a unique position as we bring our voices, the voices of women traders, into global conversations and also in national ones, highlighting our challenges and putting forward our recommendations for how we think policies and legislation can assist us to trade, grow and thrive.

The OWIT International network has over 2,000 individual members in chapters located throughout the world. This dynamic structure enables OWIT members to take advantage of member benefits both locally and globally and to also access new markets and contacts.
