WEDO brings women together

The theme of this year’s commemoration was: “Partnering to learn, empower, and grow.” Gaobakwe spoke of the need to embrace the changes that the Fourth Industrial Revolution has brought to the way business interacts with human beings. She spoke of the need to think globally and embrace technology as an enabler to humanity while acknowledging that it is important to build relationships locally.
