Forsyth Barr is proud to support Business South's International Women’s Day Wāhine Connection Event with keynote speaker Rasha Abu-Safieh, a visionary entrepreneur and co-founder of STARLab and G-Gateway, the first IT impact-sourcing enterprise in Palestine, which has created hundreds of jobs for youth and women. Recognised by Time Magazine in 2018 as a Next Generation Leader, she is currently Head of Digital Strategy and Partnering at the University of Otago and an Edmund Hillary Fellow. Sene Naoupu, newly appointed CEO of the North Otago Rugby Football Union, will also speak, sharing her insights as a leader in sport and business.
This event is all about connection, growth, and supporting each other - whether in business, personal development, or community impact. Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with like-minded wāhine, gain valuable insights, and enjoy bubbles, nibbles, and lucky prize draws.
