FinTribe, Africa’s largest financial community for women, has announced its upcoming flagship event — the FinTribe Finance Fair 2025 — scheduled to take place on October 25th in Victoria Island, Lagos.
Themed “Level Up,” this year’s fair aims to move beyond basic financial literacy to focus on wealth creation, financial independence, and long-term economic influence for women. The event will combine expert insights, practical sessions, and one-on-one mentorship opportunities designed to help participants take immediate, actionable steps toward financial empowerment.
Headlining this year’s edition are notable industry and creative leaders, including Dr. (Mrs.) Ajoritsedere Awosika, former Chairperson of Access Bank Plc; Mr. Olufemi Shobanjo, CEO of NGX Regulation Limited; award-winning actor and producer Ruth Kadiri; and Ayanime Edem, founder of The Elite Finishing School (TEFS). The speakers will share diverse perspectives across finance, leadership, and entrepreneurship, inspiring women to turn financial knowledge into tangible results.
Founder of FinTribe, Jennifer Awirigwe—popularly known as Financial Jennifer—said the fair is designed as a transformative experience.
“‘Level Up’ is more than a theme; it’s a call to action,” Awirigwe said. “This year, we’re moving from theory to execution—helping women translate ambition into assets and confidence into financial independence.”
Since its inception, FinTribe has grown rapidly, with attendance rising from 5,000 women in 2023 to over 7,000 in 2024, underscoring the strong demand for its practical and inclusive approach to finance.
The 2025 Finance Fair will feature panel discussions, keynote sessions, and hands-on workshops covering investments, real estate, cryptocurrency, career growth, and entrepreneurship. A key highlight will be the “Direct-to-Expert” segment, where attendees can engage personally with financial advisors and professionals to receive tailored guidance and take actionable steps toward their financial goals on-site.
With registration now open at bit.ly/FinTribeFinanceFair-2025, early interest has already surpassed previous years. The event is expected to further cement FinTribe’s role as a leading platform driving women’s financial empowerment and inclusive economic participation across Africa.
