DIDINTLE KHUNOU TAKES A SEAT AT . 💗

Award-winning actress and storyteller Didintle Khunou joined us at the 10th Annual EmpowaWomen Leadership Summit, adding the voice of the creative economy to a room of women leading across sectors.

For Didintle, the power was in access: meeting ambitious, aligned women and building relationships that can lead to greater opportunity and economic impact.

“It’s so important to just be in the room, to network and meet with people who are aligned.”

She also pointed to the bigger ambition: building generational wealth and contributing to closing South Africa’s wealth gap.

That is what is about. Turning access into relationships, relationships into opportunity, and opportunity into economic agency.

**And the work cannot end when the Summit does.**

We’re building an always-on ecosystem that advances women through access, opportunity and meaningful connections throughout the year.

Partner with EmpowaWomen, Let’s impact beyond the Summit.💗

COURAGE, CLOTHED IN COMPASSION. 💗👑

Amanda Dambuza receives the EmpowaWomen Humanitarian Vanguard Award at the 3rd Annual Bubbles & Nibbles EmpowaWomen Leadership Awards’26, honouring a woman who has built businesses, opened doors, created tables and made space for others to take their seats.

From starting as a project administration intern to building a successful consulting company, her journey is proof of what opportunity can unlock when it is met with courage, responsibility and purpose.

“True leadership is found in the choices we make when no one is there to applaud.”

Congratulations, Amanda Dambuza. Thank you for speaking when silence would have been easier, seeing those who were overlooked and leaving people and places better than you found them.

FUNDING. MARKETS. NETWORKS. THIS IS HOW WOMEN-LED BUSINESSES SCALE. 💗

Hazel Khumalo, Managing Director: Head Pan-Africa Sales, Investor Services, Corporate and Investment Banking at Absa, delivered a practical message on what it truly takes to grow a women-led business.

Funding provides the capital to move forward. Market access connects businesses to new customers, regions and opportunities across the full supply chain. Networks and strategic partnerships bring the knowledge, sponsorship and support needed to strengthen the business, grow the brand and expand its reach.

Her message went beyond helping women start businesses. It was about ensuring that women-led businesses have what they need to grow, compete and scale.

The work continues through .

See you at . 💗
