How it all started

It all began with a day dream in a classroom at the University of Oxford in 2014. While waiting for a session to begin, Tope Fajingbesi began imagining how powerful and impactful a similarly purposeful gathering of women of African descent would be. The ideas began to flow, and she eagerly scribbled them down! She dreamed about creating a safe platform to break barriers and speak truthfully about obstacles that keep women from thriving. The ideas were great, however, execution wouldn’t happen until the first She-EO on August 19th, 2017. But once the train left the station on that beautiful Fall day in August, there was no stopping the movement. A global mission was born!

 

Power. Purpose. Possibility.
