Faten Alshazly inducted into Top 100 Most Powerful Women Hall of Fame
Faten Alshazly is helping to put the Halifax Chamber of Commerce on the map. Chair of the Halifax Chamber Board of Directors, Faten is an entrepreneur, mentor, and Co-Founder of WeUsThem — a full-service advertising agency based in Halifax. Faten is also the Chief Executive Officer of HealthEMe, a new startup launched in 2022, and serves on the board of Efficiency One.
In November 2022, Faten was recognized by the Women’s Executive Network (WXN) as one of Canada’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women. Since it was her fourth time on the list, she was also inducted into the Hall of Fame.
In April of 2021, the Halifax Chamber was honoured to welcome Faten as Chair of the Board of Directors. “Faten has been a trailblazer for the Chamber,” says Patrick Sullivan, President and CEO of the Halifax Chamber. “She is the first immigrant woman to serve as Chair, and she has stepped up to be the face of the organization.”
The WXN annually recognizes the leadership and accomplishments of 100 outstanding Canadian women across various industries for their role in advocating for workforce diversity and inclusion, influencing change, and empowering tomorrow's leaders. Faten has been named Top 25 Most Powerful Women in Business and recognized for her community work and leadership roles with Women Get On Board, a member-based company committed to advancing gender diversity in the boardroom.
Faten was inducted into the WXN Hall of Fame alongside Clare Beckton, Desirée Bombenon, Beth Wilson, and Martha Billes. Some previous inductees include Dr. Makaziwe Mandela, Susan Aglukark, Mandy Rennehan, and Heather Reisman.
Faten’s recognition in the WXN Hall of Fame comes as no surprise to Sullivan. “Faten has made incredible strides when it comes to diversity and inclusion, not only at WeUsThem but in the broader Halifax community,” he says. “Faten and her team work to elevate underrepresented voices — a practice she consistently applies every time we sit down with our Board of Directors. We are truly proud of her demonstrated leadership and couldn’t be happier that her hard work is being recognized on a national stage.”
