Community

Womvest Community is centred around creating opportunities for women to participate in the investment and entrepreneurship ecosystem. 

​

Womvest facilitates this by means of its Mentorship Programme, Activator Programme and Ambassador Programme. Community is driven by the value creation from investment and skills sharing between women. 

​

Womvest hosts networking events as part of its community initiative, and will be looking at creating a membership programme in future. 

Mentorship Matching Program

The Womvest Mentorship Matching Program offers young, driven women within the finance sector broadly the opportunity to be matched with a mentor that best aligns with their short- to medium-term goals for a focused period of 3 months.  

Mentorship is a frequently referred to opportunity but is often misunderstood or seemingly unaccessible to both aspiring mentors and mentees.

A key theme that emerges is the matching of high-quality mentees with value-adding mentors. 

Womvest has launched the mentorship matching program in order to connect enthusiastic and dedicated mentees with value-adding mentors and remove the complexities of mentorship by guiding the mentorship process.

A Guided 3-month Mentorship Opportunity

Womvest will act as a facilitator during the 3-month program – offering support to mentees in the form of weekly check-ins to gage progress towards goals, interview prep, resume review, and tips on how to optimise the mentorship opportunity.

​

We believe that a 3-month period of intentional and structured engagement between mentee and mentor is enough time to address clearly defined objectives. 

 

Womvest’s involvement aims to enhance the mentee-mentor experience and resultant value creation.

Applications for the next cohort of mentees are closed. Follow us on LinkedIn and Instragram for updates on the next intake.
