London-based Dunhill Ventures has finalized arrangements to host the next installment of its esteemed Raising Impact Investment Summit Series on March 14, 2024.

The event will coincide with the inaugural Guardian Woman Festival scheduled to take place in Lagos.

Set against the backdrop of International Women’s Month, the Guardian Woman Festival has embraced the 2024 International Women’s Day theme, “Inspiring Inclusion.” The festival aims to catalyze action and foster a lasting impact on the integration of women and girls across diverse sectors.

Dunhill’s investment summit will not only honor female founders and investment leaders in family offices and funds but also delve into the realms of impact investments and community-focused initiatives preferred by women. This initiative follows the success of previous family office impact summits in Davos, New York, London, Singapore, and Dubai during COP28.

Scheduled to be Dunhill’s maiden investment summit in Lagos, the event will feature a VIP reception at the Federal Palace Hotel. It will offer a platform for family offices, individual investors, and institutions to engage in select presentations by purpose-driven companies advocating for exceptional female tech talent and facilitating access for women.

Natalie Torin, Dunhill’s Managing Director from London, expresses enthusiasm about the event’s alignment with The Guardian Woman Festival. She highlighted the opportunity to showcase high-growth companies in Nigeria and West Africa while fostering partnerships with international entities.

Ambra Berselli, Dunhill’s Investment Director from Dubai, emphasized the event’s dual focus on female entrepreneurship and the increasing presence of women in investment decision-making roles. She underscored the importance of value-driven economics in shaping capital commitments.

The summit promises to be an invaluable networking opportunity for investors seeking to collaborate with founders committed to enhancing systemic diversity, inclusion, and access through scalable ventures aligned with the UN Development Goals.
