GAIA AFRICA further advances women

Candide-Johnson

It’s always been said that women are their own Achilles’ heel.

That they don’t support each other as necessary and even go out of their way to prevent progress for themselves.

GAIA AFRICA is however battling to change this narrative.

Nigeria’s premier private members club for professional and businesswomen leaders, it was established to provide a nurturing and authentic environment for women leaders so that they can support and learn from each other.

And taking that aim a definitive step further, it has launched its club house in Lagos on November 13, 2021.

“It’s incredible to see one’s vision come to life. In spite of the challenges, I have seen our beautiful club house completed, members continuing to build trust, forming new friendships, investing and doing business together. And best of all, it’s great to see membership on the increase,” Olatowun Candide-Johnson, Founder/CEO, GAIA AFRICA, said.

It’s always been easy for men to meet in comfortable and confidential ‘clubs’ where million-dollar deals are negotiated, but such spaces are either uncomfortable or completely out of bounds for women.

With a dearth of innovative, private members clubs for women to connect, GAIA AFRICA was founded in 2018 to address the urgent need and represents the power of making useful connections, staying persistent and executing ideas.

She added that “GAIA AFRICA is built around the common interests of her members to create the opportunity for them to bond in a safe and peaceful space to forge business partnerships, invest in lucrative deals, sponsor and support one another.

“This is achieved through peer-to-peer mentoring, our executive academy which brings new learning and/or refreshers for members as well as our smaller interest groups, mini clubs, which provide another avenue for members with similar interest to bond deeper and build trust.

“Most importantly, our collaborations are built on the GAIA Honour Code of Mutual Trust, Integrity & Authenticity.”

The club house, known as GAIA House, is a three-level luxury club located in the heart of Victoria Island, Lagos and it’s poised to serve the needs of members for business and entertainment with facilities that include Gaby Lagos (a Mediterranean and evolved fusion restaurant), The Haven (exquisite members lounge), The Hub (multipurpose function room), The Athena Meeting Rooms, a fitness studio, steam room and Amalfi massage room.

GAIA House, a confluence of business and lifestyle, is available for select private events including private dinners, board lunches, private screenings, exhibitions and other intimate events by prior reservation.
