Studies show that the vast majority of expat spouses are highly educated women who speak more than one language. 90% of these women worked in their home country before moving abroad. If you asked them, 84% would say they want to work in their host country. In reality, only 35% do.

There are many reasons for this: not speaking the local language, access to childcare, qualifications which are not recognized,… The main reason, however, is the lack of a network and contacts in their host country.

Our group was created to solve that problem.
