Nigeria’s growing conversation around women’s leadership and economic inclusion will take centre stage on June 19 as the seventh edition of the SheCan Do More conference convenes in Lagos, with organisers reporting more than 13,800 registrations ahead of what is expected to be its largest gathering yet.

The conference, scheduled to hold at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, has evolved from a motivational event into a year-round leadership and empowerment platform connecting women and young professionals to mentorship, skills development, career advancement opportunities, and strategic networks.

Organisers say the strong turnout reflects rising demand for platforms that equip participants with the knowledge, relationships, and opportunities required to navigate an increasingly competitive economy.

Speaking during a media briefing in Lagos, Ezinne Ezeani, founder of SheCan Nigeria and deputy managing director of MBR Signature Ltd, described the initiative as a movement focused on unlocking leadership potential and expanding access to opportunity.

“The SheCan Do More conference is more than an annual event. It has become a platform where leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals and changemakers share experiences that inspire transformation and open new possibilities for thousands of participants,” she said.
