Global Womens Trade Summit SA

Charting the Path to Empowerment:
A Forward by Diana Abruzzi, IWFCI Founder and Global Chair

In our ever changing world IWFCI has continued throughout its global chapters to support our members to assist, navigate and to adapt in these changes.

Women are realising there is a special strength, in unity with other women. Where we can support each other and keep focused, forging strong relationships through trust and
friendship. With a common passion to create and support each other’s futures.

This is why IWFCI is committed more so than ever to holding our “Global Women’s Trade Summit” in a time such as this.

With a sincere thanks to Ms Vino Pillay President
IWFCI South Africa and her team with the support of government and Industries.

Once again we welcome women from many nations to the 8th Annual IWFCI “Global Women’s Trade Summit” this year in Johannesburg South Africa.

South Africa is the most diversified and industrialised economy on the African continent. This diversity provides a wide range of business prospects across various
sectors.

Where Innovation and Entrepreneurship is widely encouraged with the potential for growth and impact is significant.
Starting a business in South Africa can be an exciting venture with numerous opportunities. With its dynamic market boasts of a growing middle class and financially well-off consumer base. This market dynamism allows for good returns on investment.

Do take time to learn the South African customs and etiquette in advance will enable you to connect successfully with the people of South Africa making your trip more
enjoyable and exciting.

IWFCI Motto - "When you build your people, you build a nation."

A Warm Welcome to the 8th Global Women's Trade Summit
Vino Pillay, IWFCI South Africa President

Empowering women in trade isn't just a goal; it's a global imperative. As we gather in Johannesburg for the 8th Global Women’s Trade Summit, we will stand at the forefront of a movement that champions diversity, equity, and inclusion in commerce.

From Africa and beyond, we're uniting women entrepreneurs, industry leaders, and change-makers from across the globe. Together, we will contribute to rewriting the narrative of trade, one empowered woman at a time.

Our summit isn't just about networking and deal-making; it's about forging meaningful connections, sharing knowledge, and catalysing change. Whether you're a seasoned business mogul or just starting your entrepreneurial journey, there's a place for you here.

Prepare to be inspired by powerful keynote speakers, engage in dynamic panel discussions, and participate in interactive sessions designed to equip you with the tools and insights needed to thrive in today's global marketplace – and in this instance, the South African landscape.

Our dynamic team is working hard to ensure that this summit isn't just about business; it's about community. It's about lifting each other, amplifying each other's voices, and creating a world where every woman can succeed.

The belief in our mission and dedication to empowering women in business by our partners and sponsors i.e. the National Conventions Bureau (South African Tourism), The Gauteng Conventions Bureau, Johannesburg Tourism and Southern Sun serves as an inspiration to us all, and reaffirms the importance of collective efforts in creating positive change and making a tangible difference to our community.

So, let's seize this moment, let's ignite change, and let's build a future where women everywhere are not just participants in trade, but leaders, innovators, and trailblazers.

I look forward to welcoming you to the 8th Global Women's Trade Summit in the vibrant heart of South Africa where the future of commerce is female!
