Africa Women Innovation and Entrepreneurship Forum

The third annual Africa Women Innovation and Entrepreneurship Forum conference promises to ignite fundamental changes in Africa’s socio-economic landscape. The conference convenes under the theme: “Equity, impact and inclusive growth towards agenda 2030 and a sustainable African future” With its sight firmly on the emancipation and economic empowerment of women who have historically been side-lined and disregarded in society, the forum seeks to give them a voice of reason. The event will see many women from the entire entrepreneurship ecosystem including business experts, stakeholders and policy makers come together to talk about ways on how to uplift women in business. The event will also some women be awarded for their sterling work they have done. The award ceremony will have about 7 categories and many finalists.
