8–10 March
WOW Bites 1
Friday
St Paul's Roof Pavilion at Royal Festival Hall
WOW Bites are little talks and inspiring ideas, achievements, obsessions, stories, performances or manifestos and everything in between. Each one is completely different – come and take a chance.
In this session:
Gail Parminter asked who the advertising industry thinks it’s talking to.
Cocoa farmers Mary Appiah and Esther Mintah Ephraim explained how women are empowered by being members of the Kuapa Kokoo co-operative in Ghana, which co-owns Divine chocolate. They were also joined by the company’s managing director, Sophi Tranchell.
Babou Olengha-Aaby, founder of Mums Mean Business, on the rise and rise of the mumpreneur
Ann Jones on life in a blue suit – a feminist’s view of 25 years in the Royal Navy.
