In order to unlock the full potential of rising female entrepreneurs, Women In Africa (WIA) Philanthropy is launching an unprecedented project in collaboration Roland Berger Consulting.

Project 54 – WIA Entrepreneurs’ Club, will identify fifty-four (54) female entrepreneurs, one from each of the 54 countries composing the African continent.

To that end, we need your support to identify great African women entrepreneurs !

Our international jury of prestigious members will select the most innovative and high-growth/impact potential companies or initiatives with already proven traction.

These women will be invited to present their projects at the WIA Revelations Night, to be held at the opening ceremony of our annual summit in Marrakech on the 27th of September 2018. An award shall be given to the most promising female entrepreneur.

This exceptional ceremony will provide valuable international exposure to these female entrepreneurs and an opportunity to present their project to more than 500 global leaders and investors.
