    REGISTRATION

  • 9:00 am - 9:30 am

    NETWORKING BREAKFAST

    Show more
    The conference does not begin when the chairperson takes the stage. It begins the moment two women who have never met find themselves at the same table. The Networking Breakfast is a deliberately unstructured opening that gives delegates the first of many opportunities to do what WIMBIZ has always done best: connect. Whether you are attending for the first time or returning for the tenth, this is where the conversations that matter most often begin.

    KEYNOTE ADDRESS

    Show more
    The keynote sets the tone, the standard, and the challenge for everything that follows. It is not a welcome. It is a provocation. In 40 minutes, the keynote speaker makes one bold, clear argument that every delegate will carry into every session, every breakout, and every conversation for the rest of the two days. The WIMBIZ 25th Annual Conference keynote is not the beginning of the programme. It is the first move in a two-day conversation about who African women are, what they are building, and what the world needs from them right now.
  • 11:10 am - 12:00 pm

    FIRESIDE CHAT

    THE GEOGRAPHY OF OPPORTUNITY: WHY THE WORLD NEEDS WHAT AFRICA HAS?

    Show more
    The global conversation about opportunity has shifted. For decades, Africa was framed as a continent of need. That framing is over. This fireside chat opens with a different premise: that Africa is now one of the most consequential geographies of opportunity on the planet, and that the women in this room are positioned to shape what that opportunity produces. From food systems to energy transition, from financial infrastructure to creative economies, the conversation examines where the real opportunities lie, what it takes to access them, and why the world is watching what African women do next.
  • 12:05 pm - 12:25 pm

    MICROTALK

    POSITIONING FOR CONTINENTAL OPPORTUNITIES

    Show more
    Africa’s growth is accelerating, but its value chains are lagging behind. Conglomerates and entrepreneurs are driving bold initiatives, yet many of these efforts slow down because essential links in the chain are missing or inefficient. Too often, innovators are forced to rebuild these gaps themselves, losing focus on the larger mission. The real opportunity lies in stepping in as the connector—providing the missing pieces that bring structure, speed, and cohesion to the entire system. By strengthening these overlooked components, you become the catalyst that transforms big ideas into fully functioning, high‑value continental solutions. This session focuses on claiming that role: identifying gaps, delivering the missing links, and positioning yourself as the force multiplier behind Africa’s most important opportunities.
  • 12:25 pm - 12:45 pm

    MICROTALK

    BUILD, BUY, PARTNER

    Show more
    As enterprises expand across the country, the continent, and eventually the globe, culture, infrastructure, and technology all shape how growth can be duplicated. Scaling doesn’t always require starting from scratch. In many cases, the fastest and smartest path is knowing when to build what you need, buy what already exists, or partner with an entity that shortens the journey, provides local intelligence, and delivers the structure required to succeed in a new environment. This microtalk brings a deal‑making and strategic lens to the morning’s opportunity conversation. It draws on real examples from industries across Africa to show how women‑led businesses can use acquisitions, joint ventures, and strategic alliances to accelerate growth far beyond what organic building alone can achieve. It’s about choosing the right pathway build, buy, or partner to scale with speed, confidence, and continental relevance.
  • 12:45 pm - 1:05 pm

    MICROTALK

    FROM WHERE SIT: HOW CAREER PROFESSIONALS IN CORPORATE & PUBLIC SERVICE CAN SEE AND SEIZE OPPORTUNITY

    Show more
    The Geography of Opportunity is not only for those who own the business. It is for every woman in this room. This microtalk speaks directly to the career professional asking the quiet question: how does any of this apply to me? In 20 minutes, this speaker shows what it looks like to think and move like an intrapreneur from where you already sit, spotting opportunity before your organisation does, building influence around the problems you are solving, and positioning yourself at the centre of Africa's growth story without waiting for a title change or a business registration to give you permission. The geography of opportunity rewards those who are positioned, prepared, and paying attention from wherever they stand.
  • 1:10 pm - 2:00 pm

    LUNCH

  • 2:15 pm - 2:40 pm

    FEMALE ACHIEVER’S AWARD

    Show more
    Every year, WIMBIZ pauses the conversation to do something the business world does not do nearly enough: name the women who built something exceptional and make sure the room knows who they are. The Female Achiever's Award is not a consolation prize or a participation trophy. It is a deliberate act of institutional recognition for women whose achievements have broken ground, shifted systems, or opened doors for every woman who comes after them. This year's categories celebrate the women who built Nigerian industries, created capital markets, and pushed the boundaries of what African women are expected to lead.
  • 2:45 pm - 3:45 pm

    PLENARY

    THE GREEN ECONOMY AND AFRICA'S FOOD VALUE CHAIN: WHAT AFRICAN WOMEN NEED TO OWN NEXT

    Show more
    Climate change is both a crisis and a catalyst, and African women sit at the centre of its risks and its emerging opportunities. Yet mainstream conversations rarely name this clearly. This plenary reframes the green economy as a space where women across politics, public service, corporate intrapreneurship, entrepreneurship, and investment have distinct, urgent roles to play. The global energy transition is opening a playing field that for the first time in decades is genuinely accessible to new entrants. For entrepreneurs, it is the rise of renewable energy ventures, sustainable agriculture models, circular‑economy businesses, and green‑certified supply chains. For intrapreneurs inside corporates and public institutions, it is the new mandates, sustainability units, innovation labs, and leadership pathways emerging as organisations respond to global climate commitments. For investors, it is the long‑term value being created in climate‑smart portfolios, green infrastructure, and food‑system transformation. And for political and policy leaders, it is the regulatory frameworks being drafted right now rules that will determine who benefits from the green economy for the next two decades. This session is not about the threat of climate change. It is about the position it is creating for African women across every sector. Those who move early whether they are shaping policy, driving institutional change, building businesses, or investing in the future will define what African women’s leadership in the green economy looks like. This plenary connects the dots, clarifies the opportunities, and makes the case for why the next frontier of ownership belongs to women who choose to step in now.
  • 2:45 pm - 3:45 pm

    PARALLEL EVENT (For Creatives)

    THE $100 BILLION CREATIVE ECONOMY

    Show more
    Africa’s creative economy is already a $60 billion sector and it’s projected to hit $200 billion by 2030. That growth is real, measurable, and accelerating. Yet the systems that turn African creativity into generational wealth ownership structures, IP protection, financing, distribution, and global licensing are still largely controlled by people outside the continent. The industry is powerful, but fragmented. Brilliant talent, weak infrastructure. Massive demand, limited ownership. This room exists to change that. This session is built for any creative who understands that talent alone is not enough. Five chairs. Five vantage points. One truth running through all of them: the money is not in the moment of creation it’s in who owns what the creation becomes. The Creator, The Builder, The Capital, The Distributor, and The Owner each take the stage to answer the questions nobody else is asking: What is stopping African creatives from owning their output? What needs to be built? Who needs to invest? Where is the money? And how do we make sure the next decade of African cultural dominance translates into African wealth? This is not a panel. It is a power room. A strategy room. A wake‑up call. At the centre sits one empty chair labelled $100 Billion. Not decoration but provocation. A reminder that this industry is not just vibrant; it is lucrative. IP ownership is one of the fastest‑growing asset classes in the world. Content libraries, licensing deals, royalties, brand rights, distribution networks these are the engines that create billion‑dollar empires. And African creatives deserve to own them. If you are a filmmaker, designer, writer, musician, animator, photographer, producer, curator, or cultural entrepreneur, this is the room you cannot afford to miss. If you are an investor, this is the sector you should already be entering. If you are a creative professional, this is where you learn how to turn influence into equity. The women in this room are not just participants in Africa’s creative economy. They are its next owners.

    MICROTALK

    BRAND BEFORE BUSINESS: MAKING WIMBIZ WORKS FOR YOU

    Show more
    Before you leave this building, there is one more asset you need to activate. Not a contact you made at breakfast. Not a note you took in a session. The asset is WIMBIZ itself. For 25 years, WIMBIZ has been more than a conference. It is a community, a credential, and a platform with institutional weight behind it that very few organisations in Nigeria can match. The women who get the most out of WIMBIZ are not necessarily the ones who attend every session or collect the most business cards. They are the ones who understand what the platform actually offers and make a deliberate decision to use it. This microtalk is short, direct, and unapologetically practical. In 15 minutes, a WIMBIZ founder or BOT member walks delegates through exactly how to leverage their membership and their presence at this conference in ways that most people never think to do. How to use the WIMBIZ network with intention. How to activate the community between conferences and not just during them. How to carry the WIMBIZ credential into rooms it has not entered yet. And how to turn the connections made in the last two days into relationships that actually move things forward. You invested in being here. This session is about making sure that investment compounds long after you leave.
  • 4:25 pm - 4:55 pm

    MICROTALK

    STAY RELEVANT: AI IS CHANGING THE RULES. ARE YOU READY?

    Show more
    Artificial intelligence is no longer a future conversation. It is happening inside your organisation right now, reshaping how decisions are made, how work gets done, and which skills the market is willing to pay a premium for. The women who will lead in the next decade are not necessarily the ones with the most experience. They are the ones who understood early that the rules had changed and moved accordingly. This microtalk is a direct, honest conversation about what AI actually means for the professional woman in Nigeria today. Not the theoretical version. The version that is already showing up in your inbox, your workflow, and your performance review. In 30 minutes, this session names the specific ways AI is changing the professional landscape, identifies where the real risks lie for those who wait, and maps the moves that separate the women who will thrive in this new environment from those who will be caught off guard by it. The message is simple: relevance is no longer automatic. It is a choice you make deliberately, and the time to make it is now.
  • 4:55 pm - 5:25 pm

    GET AHEAD: BUILD YOUR AI C-SUITE. YOUR EXECUTIVE TEAM IS NOW IN YOUR LAPTOP

    Show more
    What if you had a chief strategy officer, a financial analyst, a communications director, a research lead, and a market intelligence expert available to you at any hour, at a fraction of the cost, and without the politics? That is not a fantasy. That is what AI tools make possible right now for any professional or entrepreneur who knows how to deploy them. This microtalk reframes the AI conversation entirely, moving it away from fear and into practical power. It makes the case that the woman who learns to build her personal AI C-suite is not just working smarter. She is operating at a level of leverage that was previously available only to the largest organisations with the deepest pockets. Whether you are leading a team inside a corporation, running your own business, or navigating a career transition, the tools exist right now to multiply your output, sharpen your thinking, and free your time for the work that only you can do. In 30 minutes, this session walks delegates through the specific AI tools, use cases, and daily habits that turn a laptop into an executive support system. Practical, immediately actionable, and designed for the woman who is ready to stop watching the AI revolution and start leading from inside it.
  • 5:25 pm - 5:55 pm

    MICROTALK

    INNOVATION TECHNOLOGY AND THE FUTURE OF WORK

    Show more
    The future of work is not coming. It is already here, and it is arriving faster than most organisations, and most professionals, are prepared for. Artificial intelligence is reshaping industries, automating functions that once required years of expertise, and creating entirely new categories of work that did not exist five years ago. The question is no longer whether technology will change your professional landscape. It is whether you will be the one who shapes that change or the one it happens to. This microtalk speaks directly to the woman navigating this moment, whether she is leading a team, running a business, or building a career inside an organisation that is still figuring out what the next five years look like. It maps the specific ways that innovation and technology are redrawing the boundaries of work in Nigeria and across Africa, names the skills and postures that will determine who thrives in this new landscape, and makes the case for why African women, with their unique combination of adaptability, relational intelligence, and cross-sector experience, are not behind in this story. They are positioned to lead it. The message is not that technology is threatening. It is that technology is the new geography of opportunity, and the women who move with intention, curiosity, and strategic clarity will not just survive the future of work. They will define it.

    PARALLEL EVENT I (High Calibre Networking Event and Workshop for Delegate Plus)

    The CAPITAL ROOM: GETTING SEEN, GETTING FUNDED, GETTING TO SCALE

    Show more
    The difference between a promising African women-led business and a scaled one is rarely the idea. It is almost always the capital. Not just the absence of it, but the absence of the knowledge, positioning, and relationships that attract it. This exclusive session moves past the inspiration and into the infrastructure of funding. Delegates hear directly from institutional investors, development finance professionals, and venture capital partners on what a fundable business actually looks like from the other side of the table, what signals credibility, what triggers doubt, and what the pathway from first conversation to committed capital really involves. This is not a motivational session about what is possible. It is a practical briefing on how to get into the rooms where decisions are made and walk out with more than a business card.
  • 4:25 pm - 5:55 pm

    PARALLEL EVENT II (For randomly selected delegates who have indicated interest)

    THE FIX ROOM: REAL PROBLEMS, REAL EXPERTS, REAL SOLUTIONS

    Show more
    Most conferences give entrepreneurs inspiration. This session gives them answers. The Fix Room is an exclusive, high-intensity working session for a carefully selected group of registered entrepreneurs attending the conference, each of whom arrives prepared with a specific, data-backed business challenge. No vague questions. No theoretical scenarios. Real problems from real businesses, put in front of real experts. Facilitated by experienced investors, operators, and strategists, the session produces real outputs: actionable strategies, expert referrals, and in cases where the pitch merits it, direct conversations about funding and partnership. Every participant is required to prepare a concise two-sentence problem statement supported by data before the session begins, because the quality of the solution depends entirely on the quality of the problem. This is not a showcase and it is not a pitch competition. It is a problem-solving room, and every entrepreneur who walks in leaves with something she can use the morning after.

    TED TALK

    BUILDING BEYOND YOURSELF: THE WOMAN, HER POWER, WEALTH & LEGACY

    Show more
    There is a version of success that stops with you. The title you earned. The business you built. The income you generate. And then there is a version that outlasts you, that multiplies across generations, institutions, and communities long after your name has moved from the masthead to the acknowledgements page. The difference between those two versions is not ambition. It is architecture. This TED Talk opens Day 2 with a single, provocative argument: that the most powerful thing a woman can do at the peak of her influence is begin building beyond herself. Not as an act of generosity, though it is that too, but as a deliberate, strategic decision about what kind of leader she intends to be and what kind of world she intends to leave behind. In 30 minutes, drawing on a career built at the intersection of leadership, transformation, and human potential, this speaker makes the case that building beyond yourself requires three things most high-achieving women have spent their careers developing without realising it: the clarity to know what you stand for, the courage to build structures that carry it forward without you, and the wisdom to understand that your greatest contribution may not be what you have built, but who you have built it for. This is the talk that sets the frame for everything that follows on Day 2. It is not a summary of what has been. It is the opening argument for what comes next.

    BUILDING BEYOND YOURSELF: THE WOMAN, HER POWER, WEALTH & LEGACY

    Show more
    TED-STYLE CHAT: BUILDING BEYOND YOURSELF: THE WOMAN, HER POWER, WEALTH AND LEGACY If the TED Talk asks the question, this session lives inside it. Two women. Two distinct paths to the same destination. One conversation that refuses to stay on the surface. Building beyond yourself looks different depending on where you are standing. For one woman it is the wealth structure she is building across generations, the trust, the succession plan, the investment portfolio that will outlast her tenure and her title. For another it is the institution she is shaping, the policy she is writing, the organisation she is leaving more capable than she found it. For both, it is the same fundamental challenge: how do you convert personal achievement into something that compounds beyond your presence? This TED-style conversation brings together two women who have earned the right to speak to this question from experience rather than theory. In two back-to-back 30-minute conversations, each speaker takes the frame established in the TED Talk and makes it specific, personal, and honest. What did it actually cost to build beyond themselves? What did they have to let go of? What structures did they have to build, and which ones did they have to dismantle? Where did power serve the mission and where did it get in the way? This is not an inspirational panel. It is a rare, unvarnished look at what building beyond yourself actually requires from the women who are already doing it, and what every woman in this room needs to understand before she gets there.

    WORKSHOP

    MY WELLNESS PASSPORT: PRACTICAL VALIDATED SELF-ASSESSMENT TOOLS FOR A HEALTHIER, WEALTHIER AND HAPPIER YOU

    Show more
    Every woman in this room is managing something. A career. A business. A team. A family. Aging parents. Growing children. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, her own health, quietly waiting for a moment of attention that never quite arrives. This workshop creates that moment, deliberately, practically, and without apology. The My Wellness Passport is not a motivational session about self-care. It is a structured, clinically informed self-assessment experience that gives every delegate a clear, honest picture of where she actually stands, physically, mentally, and emotionally, and what that picture means for her ability to sustain the life and career she is building. The session opens with data drawn directly from a pre-conference health survey completed by delegates in advance, naming the specific health realities that women at this professional stage are navigating most commonly, and naming them honestly rather than dressing them up in wellness language. A physician-led interactive segment then separates myth from medical reality on the issues that matter most, from hormonal health and cardiovascular risk to stress, sleep, and the specific ways that sustained high performance affects the female body over time. The session does not lecture. It listens, asks the right questions, and speaks plainly about what the answers mean. The workshop closes with every delegate leaving with her own Wellness Passport: a personalised, data-informed snapshot of her current health landscape and one specific, sustainable commitment she is making to herself before she walks out of the room. Because the most expensive investment a high-achieving woman can make is in a version of success that costs her her health. And the most valuable thing WIMBIZ can do at its 25th conference is send every delegate home not just sharper and more connected, but whole.

    FIRESIDE CHAT

    WHERE IS AFRICA'S FEMALE-LED UNICORN - AND WHY HAVEN'T WE BUILT IT YET

    Show more
    Africa does not have a food shortage. It has a value-chain problem. And that problem is one of the largest untapped opportunity landscapes on the continent. This session reframes the green economy conversation entirely, moving it away from climate anxiety and into commercial possibility, specifically the trillion-dollar opportunity sitting inside Africa's food system and the question of who will own it. The opportunity is not "become a farmer." It is far more expansive than that. Who owns the cold room? Who owns the processing plant? Who owns the logistics platform? Who owns the solar infrastructure? Who monetises the agricultural waste? Who captures the carbon revenue? Who finances the farmer? Who captures the export margin? Almost every link in the chain from seed to export presents a viable, scalable business and almost every one of those businesses is currently underleveraged. For the entrepreneur, this is a map of ten businesses she could start or scale today. For the investor, it is a portfolio of undervalued opportunities across one of Africa's most resilient sectors. For the career professional, it is a frontier of emerging roles, institutional mandates, and investment decisions that her organisation is already navigating, whether she knows it or not. Delegates leave this session not inspired in the abstract but equipped with a specific, commercial picture of where the green food economy is going, what it will take to own a piece of it, and exactly where African women should be positioning themselves right now.

    BREAKOUT SESSION I (YOUNG PROFESSIONALS & EMERGING LEADERS)

    START RIGHT, STAY RICH: BUILDING WEALTH HABITS THAT COMPOUND OVER TIME

    Show more
    The wealth gap between women who started building financial habits in their twenties and those who waited until their forties is not a gap in income. It is a gap in time, and time is the one resource that cannot be recovered. This breakout session is for the woman who is earlier in her journey and honest enough to admit that nobody taught her this. In a frank, practical conversation, delegates explore the foundational wealth habits that work quietly in the background while everything else is happening: how to build an investment posture on any income, how to protect what you earn from the silent wealth erosion that nobody warns you about, and why starting now, imperfectly and with whatever she currently has, will always outperform waiting for the right moment that never quite arrives. This room does not judge where you are starting from. It focuses entirely on where you are going.
  • 3:20 pm - 4:20 pm

    BREAKOUT SESSION II (MID CAREER PROFESSIONALS & EARLY-STAGE BUSINESS OWNERS)

    HELD TOGETHER: LEADING WHILE CARING FOR EVERYONE AT HOME

    Show more
    Nobody talks about this in professional spaces. The mid-career woman who is leading a team, growing a business or navigating a demanding career, raising children who still need her, and supporting parents who are beginning to need her differently, all simultaneously, is carrying a weight that most leadership conversations simply pretend does not exist. This breakout session names it directly and without apology. In a room of women living the same reality, the conversation moves past the motivational framing and into the honest territory: what does sustainable actually look like at this stage? What does it cost, physically, emotionally, and financially, to hold everything together? What do boundaries look like when everyone who needs you is someone you love? And what can you put down without losing what matters most? This is not a therapy session. It is a strategy session for women who are holding it all together and ready to be honest, finally, about what that actually takes.
  • 3:20 pm - 4:20 pm

    BREAKOUT SESSION III (SENIOR EXECUTIVES, PUBLIC SECTOR LEADERS AND MEDIUM-LARGE SCALE BUSINESS OWNERS/OLDER EXPERIENCED WOMEN SEEKING LEGACY)

    LEGACY: WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE HAVE & WHAT WE ARE BUILDING NEXT

    Show more
    This is the room for the woman who has arrived. Not arrived in the sense of being finished, but arrived in the sense of having built something real, led something significant, and accumulated enough experience to know that the questions she is asking now are fundamentally different from the ones that brought her here. At this level, the conversation shifts. You are no longer asking how to get into the room. You are asking what to do with the rooms you already own, what to build next with the resources, relationships, and influence you have spent decades accumulating, and how to ensure that what you have created does not diminish the moment you are no longer the one holding it up. This exclusive session creates the rare peer space that women leading at this level almost never find: a room where everyone present has earned their seat, where honesty is possible because everyone understands the terrain, and where the conversation can move past the inspirational framing and into the real questions. How do you structure wealth across generations without losing it to poor planning or family complexity? How do you build governance frameworks that give your business institutional durability beyond your tenure? How do you design a legacy that is structural rather than personal? And how do you find continued relevance, purpose, and energy as roles evolve, titles change, and the next generation begins to rise? This is not a session about looking back at how far you have come. It begins with the only question that matters now: what are you building next, and who will it outlast?

    VOICES FROM THE ROOMS WE ARE BUILDING INTO

    Show more
    The breakout rooms are where the most honest conversations happen. No stage, no performance, just women in the same season of life finally saying the things that usually stay unsaid. This microtalk brings those conversations back to the main hall. Three to four delegates, one from each room, take the stage for five minutes each. Not to summarise. But to share the one thing that stopped the room, the insight that landed differently, the truth every woman recognised but had never heard said out loud before. By the time the last voice has spoken, the conference is no longer three parallel conversations. It is one community carrying the combined intelligence of every room. Connected, energised, and ready for the debate that follows.
