Gratitude to our EXCELerate2024 Attendees. Thank you for your Accolades!
“This was the first time I ever attended a EXCELerate2024 and it was mind blowing! Especially the wonderful mix and diversification of workshop and plenary sessions topics were amazing, ranging from professional, spirituality, fun and sustainability. All panellists were in their own right, top tier, with lots to share, experienced and motivating. The venue, was excellent, with all its amenities and meals.
The only challenge I had was which one of the workshops to choose in between the plenary sessions.
The booth area was nicely organized, which was possible to visit during the breaks. It was a jam packed conference with exciting subjects. Not to forget energizing sessions in between, singing, entertainment and movement.
I can only recommend attending the next one, it shall not be missed. An unforgettable adventure into the world of Growing your Business, Growing yourself.”

“I’m still riding the high from the incredible vibes at the EXCELerate2024 Conference last week. It was truly an uplifting experience.
From the moment I arrived, the energy was palpable. As both an attendee and an exhibitor, I felt fully immersed in an environment that was all about empowerment and inclusion. The speakers were not only inspiring but also very relevant to the challenges and opportunities we face as women in business today. Each session seemed to build on this momentum, making us feel more connected and empowered.
One aspect that really resonated with me was the strong sense of community. It’s amazing how when we come together, share our stories, and support each other, we can elevate the entire group to new heights. This experience has definitely cemented my desire to remain an active part of this empowering community. I believe more people should know about and participate in this transformative event.
Looking forward to next year’s conference already.”
