NOVEMBER 6TH - 8TH 2025 Nairobi, Kenya
In the 21st century, women’s sports have taken center stage, breaking barriers and reshaping the global sports landscape. Now, more than ever, it is time to recognize, celebrate, and elevate the African women who are driving this transformation. The election of Africa’s first-ever IOC President and the first woman to lead the movement in its 10th presidency is a testament to the growing influence of women in sports leadership. Across Africa and the diaspora, women are excelling on and off the field—from administrators and business leaders to athletes, coaches, media professionals, and innovators shaping the future of sports. The 50 Most Influential African Women in Sports is a platform dedicated to honoring their contributions, amplifying their voices, and inspiring the next generation. As we continue to push for equity, visibility, and leadership opportunities, we invite you to join us in celebrating the women changing the game for Africa and beyond!
“I am amazed by the inspiring stories of these women. The platform is a true celebration of diversity and excellence.”
