DLO’s CEO, Linda Mabhena-Olagunju, will spearhead the company's DLO African Women in Leadership Summit on 15 August 2023 in Sandton. This event, coinciding with Women's Month, will empower women and facilitate their entry into the energy sector by exploring opportunities within the energy value chain.
The event will provide a platform to expose women-owned entities to the vast potential that exists in the energy sector, specifically.
‘’The renewable energy sector still has a long way to go in respect to transformation and female representation especially when it comes to ownership and operational involvement. One of the initiatives we have undertaken as a company is to leverage our knowledge and experience gathered over the years. We aim to use our platform to empower and support female entrepreneurs by providing them with guidance in identifying opportunities within the renewable energy market. The Summit will offer a workshop on understanding the renewable energy value chain. We encourage suppliers to attend as there are many opportunities in the sector,’’ says Mabhena-Olagunju.
