Conference + Exhibition + AWIEF Awards & Gala Dinner + Cape Town Day Tour

“I have seen AWIEF being an opportunity to celebrate women in business and to get their voices to be heard, to get their voices to be shared and their voices to transform those that are the next generations of women in business.”

"#AWIEF2023 showcased the resilience, creativity, and determination of African women who are driving positive change and contributing to the continent's socio-economic development. The forum's impact resonates beyond its duration, leaving a lasting imprint on the trajectory of women's empowerment and innovation across Africa.”

"We connected as women on so many levels; we learnt, we networked, we shared bold African solutions for African digital connectivity problems - and above all - we’ve come out fully recharged with a loud call to action - where we want to see women take their place in leadership, communities, nations and driving the change we want to see.”

“I commend AWIEF for taking this powerful crop of African women under your wing and convening this very necessary forum to help make a difference within the innovation and entrepreneurship space across the African continent.”

“The role AWIEF plays is so important. We have to bring attention to the fact that the opportunities for men and women on the continent and around the world are not equal.”

"There is a business case for a focus on women entrepreneurship, and what AWIEF has done is to build that ecosystem to bring together businesses, policymakers, educational institutions and all the players we need."
