What to expect:

We've got your back!

Let’s be honest. Pursuing your dreams, doing what you are passionate about and charting your own course as entrepreneur, are some of the most exciting things. Being female entrepreneurs ourselves, we also know how challenging and lonely the journey to business success can be, especially for women. The good news is, you don’t have to go through this alone. We’ve got your back.

As part of the African startup, innovation, technology and entrepreneurship ecosystem, you are cordially invited to join us at the Kigali Convention Centre in Kigali, Rwanda, on 9 and 10 November 2023 for Africa’s premier women and  entrepreneurship event. Learn, Connect and Be Inspired.

Don’t miss your chance to nominate yourself or someone else for the 2023 edition of the prestigious AWIEF Awards, which recognise, honour and celebrate women entrepreneurs and business owners in Africa and across various industry sectors.

Join us for a two-hour FREE HYBRID WORKSHOP on August 4, 2023, hosted by Intel in collaboration with the Africa Women Innovation and Entrepreneurship Forum (AWIEF), designed to enhance the participation of women in deep tech. 

Kristel Kruustük, founder of Testlio and leader in networked testing, joined the AWIEF Community for a Masterclass on 24 February 2022. She shared her inspirational success story, advice and thoughts on why the world needs more women in tech. Login to the AWIEF Community > Content Directory to read the full article.

Our Content Directory is packed with tips and advice from business leaders and experts, including executive coach and business mentor Regina Gounden, who shares her top advice for women entrepreneurs. Become a member of the AWIEF Community to read more.

Through our Digital Skills Programme, in partnership with GIZ and Amazon Web Services (AWS), we gave 60 young unemployed and underemployed women a fighting chance to become confident, job-ready AWS Cloud Practitioners in mere months rather than years. See what some of our graduates had to say.
