“For an entrepreneur, especially for a woman, time is the most important asset”, says Umida Rakhmanova, an owner of Miss Lighting company in Uzbekistan.
With support from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), Ipotekabank, and the Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative (We-Fi), her company is expanding through e-commerce and digital tools.
Today, Miss Lighting has evolved into a multifaceted lighting company that encompasses both the production of custom chandeliers using traditional glassblowing techniques and the manufacture of LED light bulbs.
