23rd Women in Business Conference
The UCT GSB's Women in Business Society presents the 23rd Annual Women in Business Conference. This flagship hybrid event gathers phenomenal leaders and executives from the private, public, NGO and entrepreneurial sectors to celebrate women - the innovators and architects of change - redesigning our present and reimagining our future under this year's theme 'The Butterfly Effect'.
"It has been said that something as small as the flutter of a butterfly's wing can ultimately cause a typhoon halfway across the world."
– Chaos Theory
Our world is ever-changing. The last decade has seen huge changes to how we do business, communicate, and connect with others. Much of this change has been spurred by major global events well beyond our control, and we have heard a great deal about the importance of agility and adaptation.
But what about the individuals and organisations embracing first-principles thinking, unleashing creative possibilities for solving the complex problems of our times with a vibrantly new vision for business that goes beyond merely adapting?
Join us for the 23rd Annual Women in Business Conference, hosted by the Women in Business Society, a student initiative at the UCT Graduate School of Business. Since its inception in 1999, the Women in Business Society has sought to encourage and support the active participation of women in the business sector. The forum hosts the annual Women in Business Conference to raise funds for deserving yet financially excluded women – the next generation of disrupters - to study at the UCT GSB.
This year we will gather influential business leaders and delegates to engage and share their insightful and inspiring stories about challenging the status quo and reimagining the future.
