Women in Business Event 2027
A global gathering for women in business
Held during International Women's Month, the Women in Business Event 2027 is a global gathering dedicated to advancing women's entrepreneurship, leadership and economic participation.
Hosted by Female Founders Initiative Global, the event will bring together women entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, investors, government representatives, professionals and development partners from across the world. The programme will create opportunities for meaningful networking, business learning, investment conversations, strategic partnerships and international market connections. Discussions will focus on business growth, access to finance, leadership, digital transformation, innovation and global expansion. The daytime business conference will run from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, featuring keynote addresses, panel discussions, business sessions and structured networking. Guests will reconvene at 5:00 PM for the Gala Dinner and Trailblazers Awards, celebrating exceptional women who are building businesses, creating impact and transforming their industries. The programme will explore topics including:
- Women's entrepreneurship
- Business growth and sustainability
- Access to finance and investment
- Leadership and governance
- Digital transformation
- International trade and market expansion
- Strategic partnerships
- Personal and professional development
The event is open to everyone, not only award nominees or recipients. You do not need to be nominated for an award to purchase a ticket and attend.

Celebrating women who are building the future
The Trailblazers Awards will recognise women who are building businesses, demonstrating courageous leadership and creating measurable impact within their industries and communities.
The awards will celebrate women from different countries, sectors and stages of entrepreneurship. Recognition may consider:
- Business growth and sustainability
- Innovation
- Leadership
- Resilience
- Employment creation
- Industry contribution
- Community impact
- International expansion
- Economic empowerment
- Commitment to supporting other women
A nominee must be female, own, lead or be actively building a registered business, provide valid proof of business registration, and submit complete and accurate information. There is no age limit. Self-nominations are permitted. Every nominee must submit a professionally taken facial portrait — selfies, full-body, group, blurred or filtered photographs are not accepted.
An award nomination is not an event ticket. Nominees, finalists and recipients must still hold valid event tickets to attend, and purchasing a ticket does not influence award selection.
