London-based Dunhill Ventures is perfecting plans to hold the next chapter of its Raising Impact Investment Summit Series on March 14, 2024, coinciding with the inaugural Guardian Woman Festival in Lagos.
The Guardian Woman Festival takes place during International Women’s Month, and has adopted the International Women’s Day theme for 2024, “Inspiring Inclusion”. The primary goal is to inspire action and create a lasting impact on the inclusion of women and girls across various sectors.
The Dunhill investment summit will also celebrate female founders and investment leaders in family offices and funds, and the fields women choose when assessing impact investments and community-focused initiatives.
Following successful family office impact summits in Davos during the World Economic Forum, New York, London, Singapore and Dubai during COP28, this will be Dunhill’s first investment summit in Lagos on March 14, 2024. Their VIP reception will be taking place at Federal Palace Hotel.
Dunhill’s investment summit will offer family offices, individual investors and institutions a forum of select presentations from purpose-driven companies promoting outstanding female tech talent and democratising access for women.
“The Dunhill team is excited to travel to Lagos and support The Guardian, both to showcase high-growth companies in Nigeria and West Africa poised to expand outside the region, and to serve as a conduit to help companies from abroad develop local partners and structural ties in the largest single market in Africa,” states Natalie Torin, Dunhill Managing Director, who will be visiting from London.
“Timing this event with the Guardian Woman Festival allows us to showcase not only incredible female entrepreneurs building impactful companies that can scale, but also to highlight the increasing number of women leading investment decisions in family offices and funds and how value-driven economics shape their capital commitments,” states Ambra Berselli, Dunhill Investment Director who will be joining from Dubai.
This will be an opportunity for investors to network with founders championing the urgency for greater systemic diversity, inclusion and access through scalable companies aligned with the UN Development Goals.
