We were pleased to partner with the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) to host the International Women's Day Forum 2020 on March 5, 2020 at the Commerce House, Idowu, Taylor, Victoria Island, Lagos.

The forum which was themed 'Equal Access to Capitalâ€ focused on addressing the major challenge - access to finance - faced by women in business. The theme was predicated on the result of a survey carried out by NASD on women in business across various industries in Nigeria in which an overwhelming majority of respondents identified access to finance as a major challenge.

The Keynote address at the forum was excellently delivered by Mrs. Ndidi Nwuneli co-founder and managing partner of Sahel Consulting, co-founder of AACE Foods, and founder of LEAP Africa. Afterwards, there was a panel discussion - comprising of women leaders from various industries - which provided an opportunity for the panelists to share their personal experience on challenges encountered in business and also proffer practical solutions to other business owners at the forum.

NASD in its capacity as a Securities Exchange shall continue to encourage women in business and facilitate ease of access to capital via its products and service offerings. We therefore would like to say a big thank you to all our partners and attendees at the event who contributed to the success of the event.

Happy International Women's Day!
