About The Businesswomen's Association of South Africa

The Businesswomen’s Association is a non-profit, voluntary association committed to providing a platform for the inspiration and empowerment of women in business in South Africa and beyond through promoting opportunities to support, connect and grow women in business,through lobbying, mentoring, networking, strategic alliances and developing and recognising excellence in women. The Businesswomen’s Association aims to be a united, non-racial and non-sexist business association that helps businesswomen to create connections on multiple dimensions – personal, professional and business – throughout their career. It also creates opportunities for women business owners to grow their businesses. As a national association with regional branches, it also provides local and national forums where members can exchange ideas, be informed about topical issues and create business opportunities. It acts as a lobby group on women’s business issues, highlighting and publicising not only the barriers to success that may still exist but also the many opportunities available to women in South Africa today. Through strategic partnerships with sponsors, other non-profit organisations, leading companies and business schools, it provides on-going events and opportunities to advance the interests and needs of women in business. The Businesswomen’s Association commits itself to the economic empowerment of women in line with the principles espoused in South Africa’s transformation agenda.
