In 2020, two  female pioneers –  a former executive and 20-year old veteran of  a male-dominated industry  founded association “Women In Wine Industry” with the aim of promoting women winemakers, exchanging knowledge , experience  at local and international level,  also to empower  them  to advance their careers, foster gender diversity and talent development across the industry at large.    

   “WIWI” helps women in wine education, reach their full potential, step up into leadership, share successes ideas and professional development.  Regional “Women in Wine Industry” groups   meet to discuss relevant topics such as role of woman in wine sector, entrepreneurial vision at family wineries, inspiration for new generation, role of small and medium enterprises in rural development and others, based on their personal stories and experience.

WIWI cooperates with local public institutions such as National Wine Agency, Wine Laboratory, as well as established a cooperation with international women organizations.

Together, we have the power to change the industry!
