There is nothing I like better than hearing fellow women entrepreneurs sharing their business building experiences and stories - it’s enlightening, often entertaining, and always inspirational. That’s why I’m thrilled to have kickstarted our Lioness Lean In event tour for 2018 in one of our favourite African cities, Johannesburg, on Friday last week. This is going to be an exciting year for us at Lionesses of Africa as we take not only our Lioness Lean In events around the continent, but also our Startup Night Africa events around the world. Our mission is simple - to connect Africa’s women entrepreneurs with one another in key cities to provide important access to markets and networks; and to provide a showcase for Africa’s women entrepreneurs to connect with potential buyers and influencers in those cities. At the end of the day, we recognize that there is simply no substitute for meeting people face-to-face and building great relationships in those markets where you want to do business.
Have yourself an inspired entrepreneurial day! - Melanie
