Where Founders Grow Into Leaders — Together

For female founders in Africa navigating the leap from hustle to leadership - ukuNetworka is your peer advisory, leadership growth, and strategy community.

Growth Changes Everything

You’ve moved beyond the early hustle.

Your product works, the market is responding, and funding is in play. Now comes the hard part: transitioning from founder to CEO.

The gaps most founders face at this stage:

  • No safe, strategic space to discuss leadership challenges without investor pressure.

  • Lack of access to peer networks who understand the post-seed turning point.

  • Missing operational and leadership systems to scale sustainably.

  • Isolation at the top - decision fatigue, team building, and stakeholder management without a sounding board.

Weekly Power Sessions

Focused, high-impact learning and networking opportunities designed specifically for healthcare mom-entrepreneurs. Each session is strategically crafted to provide actionable insights in a time-efficient format.
