WealthGate Africa, a real estate and wealth development company, has empowered women with practical financial knowledge through its Women Winning With Wealth initiative, designed to promote long-term financial growth, stability and independence.
The event, held in Lagos, brought together women from diverse professional and entrepreneurial backgrounds and featured intensive sessions focused on wealth creation, smart investment strategies and effective financial structuring.
Participants were introduced to practical approaches for building sustainable wealth through land banking, agriculture and structured investment planning, while also gaining insights into organising their finances for long-term and generational impact.
Speaking at the event, Founder of WealthGate Africa, Dr Mayowa Owolabi, described financial literacy as a critical tool for women’s empowerment, noting that informed financial decisions play a key role in shaping long-term security and independence.
“Financial education is no longer optional for women who desire independence and long-term security. When women understand how money works, they are better positioned to make informed decisions that shape their future,” she said.
The sessions explored how women can strengthen financial planning, identify income-generating opportunities and adopt real estate as a stable asset class. Participants also received guidance on land banking as a strategy for long-term returns and agricultural investments as a means of diversifying wealth.
Attendees were further educated on building effective financial structures, with emphasis placed on managing income, growing investments and navigating financial decisions within an evolving economic environment.
According to the organisers, the Women Winning With Wealth initiative reflects WealthGate Africa’s broader mission to expand access to credible investment opportunities and financial education, particularly for women seeking clarity and confidence in wealth creation.
The programme also addressed common financial challenges faced by women, offering practical solutions and real-life investment insights to help participants overcome barriers to financial growth. Many attendees described the event as timely and impactful, noting that it provided clarity, direction and actionable steps towards achieving financial independence.
WealthGate Africa reaffirmed its commitment to hosting similar empowerment programmes in the future, with a focus on strengthening financial inclusion and equipping women with the knowledge and tools needed to build, protect and grow wealth sustainably.
