Africa Doesn’t Lack Talent — It Lacks Knowledge Networks
2026-05-13 16:00 - 17:30
Africa has no shortage of ambitious entrepreneurs, innovative thinkers, or skilled professionals. Yet many startups and manufacturing ventures struggle—not because of a lack of talent, but because they lack access to the networks of technical expertise, industry experience, and global partnerships that help businesses scale.
This webinar explores how connecting local entrepreneurs, diaspora professionals, global experts, and industry partners can unlock new opportunities for innovation and industrial growth across the continent. We’ll look at practical models—from diaspora mentorship networks to corporate knowledge partnerships—that can accelerate technology transfer and strengthen Africa’s entrepreneurial ecosystems.
Join us to discuss how building stronger knowledge networks can help transform Africa’s talent into thriving businesses and resilient industries.

Your Why: Purpose Is Your Advantage
2026-06-10 16:00 - 17:30
Entrepreneurship isn’t a straight line—it’s cyclical. There are moments of momentum, pauses of doubt, and seasons of uncertainty. What keeps founders moving forward through it all isn’t just strategy or skill—it’s purpose.
Join us for a powerful June webinar led by Chonda Naissant, Co-Founder, Social Wellbeing, where we’ll explore how a founder’s Why becomes the anchor that sustains clarity, resilience, and direction when challenges arise.
In this session, we’ll unpack:

Why entrepreneurship naturally comes in cycles
How your Why serves as a grounding force during setbacks and self-doubt
Ways to reconnect with purpose when motivation fades
How purpose can become a long-term advantage—not just inspiration

This conversation is designed for founders, aspiring entrepreneurs, and changemakers who want to build ventures rooted in meaning, resilience, and longevity.
