Johannesburg - Women are no longer niche, as consumers, as working professionals and as business leaders and owners, according to Carol Weaving, managing director of Thebe Reed Exhibitions.
She said reaching critical mass has always been a measure of success for women’s empowerment in the business landscape. That is why the inaugural Small Business Expo and #BuyABusiness Expo are two examples of this.
About 54% of registered exhibitors at these two expos, which run from September 8 to 10 2016 at the Ticketpro Dome in Northgate, Johannesburg, are successful women-owned and women-run businesses.
