The anticipation is building as the second edition of the Jane Can Do Creative Trade Show approaches. Set to take place on June 14th, this event stands out as Ghana’s only trade show dedicated to showcasing and supporting women in the creative, cultural, and tech sectors. The theme for this year’s event is #HireHer, reflecting a strong commitment to narrowing the gender gap in economic participation by offering direct opportunities for women to thrive.
Founder Pamm Takyiwaa expresses the essence of this initiative by stating,
“When women unite, industries shift. We’re not just crossing industries—we’re rewriting them. It’s time to #HireHer, invest in her, and watch her do.”
The importance of such platforms cannot be overstated as they play a crucial role in empowering women and fostering inclusivity within various professional spheres.
To enhance the experience for attendees, this year’s trade show introduces several new elements aimed at providing practical insights and fostering connections among participants. One exciting addition is the ‘temasie’ initiative featuring six masterclasses covering essential topics such as negotiation skills, showmanship, and impact entrepreneurship. These sessions are designed to equip women with valuable tools that can propel their careers forward.
Moreover, attendees can look forward to engaging panel discussions led by top industry executives who will share their knowledge and experiences with the audience. Networking zones will provide brands with opportunities to discover qualified female talent while mentorship speed-dating sessions aim to facilitate meaningful connections between mentors and mentees. Additionally, an interactive rest/pitch zone offers a space for relaxation and idea exchange.
Adding a touch of entertainment mixed with inspiration, there will be an evening film screening coupled with storytelling conversations celebrating women in media. This segment serves not only as a form of entertainment but also as a tribute to the achievements and contributions of women within this sector.
