- Ongoing support of Junior Achievement, encouraging youth entrepreneurship.

Incoming President Andrea Williams reflected on the importance of the organisation’s trajectory as it approaches a major milestone.
“As we prepare to celebrate BPW Grand Cayman’s 50th anniversary in 2026, our focus is clear: we must continue our legacy of policy advocacy, gender equity and leadership development,” she said.
“Hosting the upcoming Regional Conference for the Americas and the Caribbean is both a privilege and a responsibility — and we are ready to rise to the occasion. The work we do today will shape the next generation of women leaders in Cayman and beyond.”
