The countdown to SheArose Summit 2026 is well and truly on, and today we are delighted to reveal the keynote speakers who will headline this year's event. These are women whose journeys embody the very spirit of SheArose? rising, breaking limits, and lifting others as they climb.

A Lineup Built to Inspire

Our curation team spent months identifying voices that span industries, generations, and geographies, all united by one thing: an unwavering commitment to empowering women. This year's keynote programme includes leaders from business, government, healthcare, the arts, and faith communities.

Each speaker will deliver a session that is not merely motivational but deeply practical? equipping attendees with tools, frameworks, and networks they can apply the moment they leave the room.

Panel Conversations

Beyond the keynotes, our signature panel discussions will tackle the most pressing issues facing women today. Expect honest, unfiltered conversations on topics including:

  • Breaking the Glass Ceiling in African Business ? what it really takes
  • Raising the Next Generation of Female Leaders ? mentorship in practice
  • Women, Wealth and Financial Independence ? strategies that work in our context
  • Faith, Identity and Purpose ? anchoring yourself in a shifting world

Workshop Facilitators

This year we have expanded our workshop programme significantly. Smaller, intimate sessions will give delegates the chance to engage directly with facilitators, ask questions, and work through real challenges in a safe and supportive environment.

Full speaker bios and session schedules will be published on this website in the coming weeks. Follow our social media channels so you do not miss a single announcement.
