About The Summit

Africa Women International Business and Investment Summit is hosted annually by African Women Investors. The purpose of the summit is to create a platform for women to dialogue with investment professionals and practitioners, finance and business experts, government and non-government entities about investment opportunities, risks, policy and legal framework. We hope this event will empower attending delegates to make informed investment decisions.
