ARISE! Women - Africa Rising Innovation Summit
We are launching ARISE! Women - Africa Rising Innovation Summit in Kigali 2nd week of November 2025, building on previous programs. 

We have previously collaborated internationally (and continue to) with the AI for Development Biennial Symposium in Bordeaux, France and Africa Summit on Entrepreneurship and Innovation ASENTI - in South Africa, Ghana, Kenya, Botswana, Ethiopia, Cote d'Ivoire and Senegal. We plan to take ARISE! Women to these and other countries in the African Union, to showcase women's innovations in agritech and healthtech and build the capacity of local innovators to be able to do the same.
In June 2025 in Kenya, we partnered with CIFOR-ICRAF's GLF Africa on Innovation meeting impact: showcasing women leading agri-tech transformation. Held in Nairobi, Kenya with 2300 partcipants onsite, the hybrid global event reached over 10 million people via social media and media channels, with more than 1 million engagements.
Additionally, in June 2025, we were part of the African Union Development Agency NEPAD's Delegation to Egypt for the AI in Health Conference under the auspices of the President of the Republic. Partners included Africa CDC and the Gates Foundation. 

To our partners and prospective partners, it would be a pleasure and an honour to collaborate on this trail blazing initiative.
