Africa Women Rising is a training, networking, and empowerment organisation that identifies, nurtures, supports and honours high achieving women globally to promote business growth and community transformation.
This is achieved with the objective of developing strategic relationships through entrepreneurship, business-to-business (B2B) network outreach, training and empowerment as well as facilitating impactful engagement and providing technical assistance in their relevant sectors.
The AWR Founder, Mrs Sekyere, said the expo would highlight the three pillars of the group— that is, to empathize, energize and elevate.
For her, the ‘emphasize’ component of the group focuses mainly on sharing and caring whilst they ‘energize’ their members by connecting them to networking and training programmes.
She explained that connecting members to the various markets helps to boost their confidence, stressing that elevating aspect of their three pillars is aimed at helping businesses to become the best brands locally and internationally.
