RISING WOMAN GLOBAL COMMUNITY & NETWORK
A Global Network With Real Impact
Since 2018, the Rising Woman Series has spotlighted exceptional women
- A Global Network With Real Impact
The Rising Woman Global Community & Network is the heartbeat of our platform—a thriving, cross‑continental ecosystem created to connect, empower, and elevate every woman featured in our Rising Woman Series. What began in 2018 as an editorial initiative has grown into a global network of leaders shaping policy, business, technology, culture, and social transformation across five continents.
As part of this community, Rising Women gain complimentary access to an exclusive global circle of heads of state, ministers, CEOs, founders, innovators, investors, academics, diplomats, and creatives who are redefining leadership in real time.
Membership in the Rising Woman community extends far beyond publication. It opens doors to meaningful connections across Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Europe, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the United States—linking women who are driving change across cultures, sectors, and generations.
Our community reflects the ethos of the series itself:
women who rise, lead, build, imagine, and transform.
Where Global Voices Meet Global Opportunities
The Rising Woman Global Community is more than a network—it is a living archive of women shaping the world’s social, economic, and technological future. Through shared visibility, collective influence, and sustained connection, our community ensures that leadership is not only celebrated but strengthened.

Rising Woman Series
An exciting offshoot of the broader program—takes on the crucial charge of female empowerment in the global economy. Published in Forbes Africa, and now on NBC.com, this multi-volume effort has featured over 1,000 women from across the global majority who are making an impact in their chosen fields. From philanthropy to health and education, energy, finance, tech, infrastructure, etc, our rising women demonstrate the value of diverse leadership and the power of the female voice. It started with Africa and has now evolved into global profiles of Rising women in North America, Europe, Asia, Middle East, Latin America, and the Caribbean, with a global south/majority focus.
Central to this series—indeed, to all of our efforts—is our proprietary Write/Speak/Meet process. We highlight changemakers across various legacy and new media formats (Write), curate their participation in high-profile events as speakers, delegates, or sponsors, to ensure impactful exposure (Speak), and embed them within our 10,0000+ member database and exclusive networks of world-shaping business, political, and cultural leaders (Meet) to ultimately access markets and FDI.

- 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.
