Community, entrepreneurship and technology are at the heart of everything Gina does. She runs a number of businesses and initiatives with a focus on providing a platform for women to share tips and resources for success, happiness and work-life balance.
A life story uniquely woven moulded a young girl from humble beginnings to a powerful woman who has since established several successful businesses. She continually empowers entrepreneurs, executives, and CEOs while being a mastermind of networking and community leadership.
Gina Romero went from technophobe to geek when she and her husband transformed her humble garage workshop into a boutique technical solutions company based in Mayfair, London.
Gina's unconventional approach to IT resulted in a lucrative portfolio of small, high revenue clients, including private investment banks, oil and gas, and climate change mitigation companies in a diverse database of over 250 customers worldwide.
After moving to Asia in 2010, she went on to be the Founder of The Athena Network Singapore, Chief Community Officer at Connected Women, Co-Founder at MettaMatch (The Connected Women App), and Executive Board Member at the Singapore Council Of Women's Organisations.
An all-around women activist and real-time connector, Gina Romero uses her years of experience and wisdom for the betterment of others and continues to expand her creative vision into international waters.
Gina believes that professional development and entrepreneurship training should be accessible to all women regardless of geographical location, race, education and financial standing.
A key objective of Gina’s work is to foster the exchange of business and expertise on a local, regional and international level – in conjunction with, and supporting, technology powered social mobility projects.
Working with corporate and community partners, local organisations and government agencies Gina continues to provide initiatives for women-led businesses to strengthen the regional startup and SME ecosystem.
Gina’s passion for helping young women embark on successful careers and entrepreneurial journeys lead to securing funding through the National Youth Council (Singapore) to engage and empower more young professionals.
Most recently Gina will be launching Connected Women in the Philippines, to give women and mothers the opportunity to learn and leverage their experience online to work from home as virtual assistants, working alongside women executives and entrepreneurs for support, guidance and mutual success.
Gina was invited to join the Singapore Women’s Register panel as a mentor in 2011 specialising in the areas of community, entrepreneurship and technology. She was nominated co-chair of Women’s Register Committee in September 2012.
Gina was elected and served as an Executive Board Member of SCWO from 2014-2016.

I want to thank everyone who has supported my book campaign! Your support means so much and there's no way I would take on this project if I didn't have so many friends and supporters behind me.
It's been crazy busy (and fun!) behind the scenes at Connected Women. Here are some exciting updates!
My interview with Cheryl Liew-Chng, The 24-Hour Woman
Here's my interview about why I'm doing the Connected Woman book, my vision for the project and why technology is essential for keeping women in the workforce.
We Partnered with Facebook's #SheMeansBusiness!
Connected Women partnered with Facebook's #SheMeansBusiness initiative to run our very first Facebook and Instagram for Business for women entrepreneurs and business owners.
We have more sessions planned - watch this space :-)
I spoke at Ateneo de Manila University about tech-empowered women
I had the honour of sharing Connected Women's mission with students, business leaders and government representatives at the #EqualityMakesSense Forum with Senator Honteveros and the Ambassadors of Sweden and Austria.
We are half-way there for Influencer and Community pre-orders
As we come to the close of the campaign this month we need 15 Influencers to meet my target of 5,000 pre-orders. Will you support?
If you haven't already purchased your Influencer bonus, we only have a few days left to wrap up the campaign. By pre-ordering - you will be my mission to empower women with technology!

For the remaining 250 copies, we are looking for a corporate partner to headline the book - and we are talking to some of the top names in tech and champions of women's empowerment. Fingers crossed we should be able to confirm a corporate partner soon!
Thank you again for your amazing support <3
Love, Gina
