The Africa Women Transformative Summit (AWTS) is more than a conference it is a movement redefining leadership, innovation, and inclusive growth across Africa. Centered on four core thematic areas: Leadership Development, Access to Finance, Access to Markets, and Digital Skills & Technology Adoption. AWTS empowers women and youth to build resilient enterprises, embrace innovation, and lead from where they stand. Each summit serves as a powerful platform for dialogue, learning, and action, bringing together entrepreneurs, policymakers, financiers, and changemakers to co-create solutions that shape Africa’s economic future.

AWTS has successfully convened two groundbreaking editions: AWTS 1.0 (24th–26th June 2024) & AWTS 2.0 (25th–27th June 2025) drawing over 700 delegates, 20 countries, and dozens of global partners.

Now, the stage is set for AWTS 3.0, happening on 9th–11th June 2026 in Nairobi, Kenya, under the inspiring theme “ Advancing Women and Youth, Creating Impact.” This next edition will chart new frontiers in innovation, leadership, and collaboration expanding opportunities for investment, trade, financing and digital transformation. We invite entrepreneurs, governments, development partners, investors, corporates, and ecosystem builders to join this transformative journey. Together, let’s advance women and youth, and create lasting impact across the continent.
