Alongside our media collaborations, our own Rising Series communicates countries, innovators, and leaders in the country, highlighting through their projects and visions, their dreams and aspirations, and their realities—all from within. Our intimate knowledge of the subject matter is achieved by living and working for 3-6 months in each of the Rising countries we profile. Through this immersive process, we glean first-hand insight and convey this to our readers and investors through engaging, detailed reporting and interviews.
We created the Rising Series out of a strong desire to celebrate innovation and perseverance in a moment marked by worldwide turmoil and economic challenges. Despite these headwinds, emerging markets continue to persevere and innovate. We have created several Rising series in economies across the Americas, Africa, The Middle East, Asia, and The Caribbean. Our goal is to celebrate and highlight these successes and to encourage many, many more.

- Our Reason
The Inspiration Behind the Rising WOMAN Project
Our founder’s mother was the inspiration behind the Rising WOMAN project.
In 2018, following her mother’s diagnosis with dementia, our founder identified a phenomenon she called Silent Leadership, where the voices of women in Africa remain unheard, their potential untapped, and their tireless dedication to family, community, and the continent overlooked.
Her mother’s experiences were shaped by the harrowing 1967 Biafra war that devastated the Igbo tribe in Nigeria. The war brought extreme poverty, famine, violence, and widespread PTSD, leaving lasting scars on everyone, including her mother.
The Rising WOMAN Series, Africa Edition was created in partnership with Forbes Africa as a tribute to her mother and a celebration of all African women and global women impacting the continent.
Six years later, this legacy continues with the Global Women Impacting the World series on NBC, which is supported by a five-year publishing contract.
