This morning, having just returned from Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire where we hosted our first Lioness Lean In events there, two things will stay at the forefront of my mind from the visit. Firstly, the power of partnership to make things happen - so a big thank you to our great friends at the Ambassade du Royaume des Pays-Bas for co-hosting our wonderful events on the ground. It was the most positive, impactful and enjoyable experience. Secondly, the power of community to bring like-minded women entrepreneurs together in a city to share, inspire and connect. It was great to see business connections being made and new, supportive friendships formed. There is an exciting and growing business buzz in Abidjan and women entrepreneurs are helping to drive a new spirit of enterprise in the city. At Lionesses of Africa, we are looking forward to helping each of these women business builders to fulfill their potential and create tomorrow’s significant and successful businesses today.
Have yourself an inspired entrepreneurial day! - Melanie
