Johannesburg - European women are welcome to come and exploit 2010 business opportunities, Minerals and Energy Minister Buyelwa Sonjica told the European Black Women in Business Federation in London on Saturday.
"I would like to invite you to the wonderful opportunity as South Africa will be hosting the Fifa Soccer World Cup in 2010," said Sonjica.
"This event has created a lot of business activity within the country and we encourage women to participate in all opportunities as they arise," she said.
Sonjica said a need for partnering in programmes would accelerate entrance into the business arena.
She said: "Partnership with European women could bear fruits and SA women could learn from their expertise of hosting the kinds of events as the world cup".
