In the first in our series #WiMMeets our very own Andrea Djan-Krofa, Director and Head of Africa at WiM: Andrea heads up the Africa operations of Women in Marketing (WiM) CIC - a global network of senior level women (and male advocates) in the marketing, advertising and communications fields, created to educate, inspire, connect and recognise the contribution women make to industry and society. Andrea launched WiM Africa in Durban, South Africa in 2018 at the Loeries Creative Week.
Women have faced challenges in being seen and treated as equals to their male counterparts since the beginning of time. The effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic have in many ways worsened this situation. New challenges have arisen, not least of which include: a widening gender pay gap, lack of sponsorship, increasing burnout and women rising as stronger leaders, yet still having their work unrecognised.
Women in Marketing (WIM) CIC is pleased to announce the Women in Marketing Africa (WiM Africa) network in partnership with the Unstereotype Alliance South Africa chapter and Google, launches the Real Talk Series. A series of open and frank conversations with women - senior professionals, industry leaders and business owners - on what it has taken to get to and stay at the top of their game.
The African Marketers Conference, hosted by the Top Marketers Club, brings together the greatest sales and marketing minds each year from Kenya and beyond to learn, share and discover the latest marketing tools and techniques.
