Annan Capital Partners in collaboration with Compatriot Magazine presents a webinar series dubbed “The African Boardroom”, a quarterly thought leadership series aimed at steering conversations bordering on business, finance, women empowerment among others with an African perspective.
The second of this groundbreaking series will be held on Monday, 8th March, 2021 in commemoration of International Women’s Day. The discussion will focus on the theme, ‘‘African Women Creating Inclusivity’’ in line with the 2021 International Women’s Day theme: “Women in leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world.” The webinar is targeted at promoting women inclusivity and leadership across numerous sectors. Speaking in an interview, Roberta Annan Founder and Managing Partner of Annan Capital Partners, expressed that ‘‘this conversation comes at a time when the world is rallying support in the fight against gender equality. We believe that such discourse is necessary in creating a more inclusive world.’’
Women inclusivity is a key driver for sustainable growth and the game changer for a well-functioning market economy. The panel discussion will explore various approaches that can position women in diverse business ecosystems to gain access to opportunities, access finance and assets, establish and lead businesses, and participate in critical decision-making processes. The discussion will also analyze the business case for women inclusivity and discuss practical strategies that can enhance women inclusivity within Africa and beyond. This dialogue will assess how women can secure meaningful representation, participation and leadership across multiple challenging sectors in this increasingly uncertain world.
The webinar promises to be insightful as it will feature top professionals and high-profile personalities for this much needed conversation. Panelists include Rufaro Mucheka, Head of Strategic Partners- Nedbank Wealth Management, Elouise Kelly, COO-Universal Music Group – Africa, Rachel More Oshodi, Vice President Sales & Specialties – Total Africa and Vivian Onano, Leading Light Initiative.
