Co-WIB

The Connecting Women in Business (Co-WIB) is a program created to empower women in business across borders: Connecting Nordic and South & Eastern African Markets.

Mission Statement:

“Our mission is to foster a thriving and inclusive business ecosystem that unites ambitious women entrepreneurs and professionals from the Nordic region with their counterparts in the South and Eastern African markets. Through our platform, we strive to create an unparalleled space for women to connect, grow, inspire, partner, promote, and invest in each other’s ventures. By facilitating meaningful collaborations and knowledge exchange, we aim to empower women-led businesses, drive economic growth, and cultivate a sustainable network that transcends geographical boundaries. Together, we harness the collective power of diverse talents, forging lasting partnerships that enrich lives, fuel innovation, and pave the way for a brighter future for women in business.”

It is very clear from the developments in the business world that there is a huge gap when it comes to women and equity inclusiveness. We at Afrika Consultancy thrive to be part of moving the needle in this area with our Co-WIB program.

 What we do:

• We empower women in business through providing a platform for networking, growth, and market expansion.
• We support female owned startups and young women aspiring to be business owners by means of expert business advice, training and mentorship.
• We promote Africa made/grown products by women and companies employing women and those with the environment in focus, between Eastern and Southern African markets and into European markets.
• We organize relevant, themed summits to support our mission.
