Hi ,

You've been waiting patiently and the day has finally come. Lagos Startup Week is kicking off the announcement of the Women Who Launch today!

We are well aware that female participation in the tech sector continues to be a significant issue.  Women constitute only 30% of professionals in Africa’s tech industry. This year, we want to continue our commitment to change and increase gender diversity at our events further.

You can now apply for Women Who Launch before it's too late. Last year, there were a lot of applicants in just a few days. You can expect the same to happen this week, so be sure to act quickly.
