A mentor can be the difference between an idea and empowering the next industry disruptor. Patricia Nzolantima, the managing partner of the marketing agency EXP-Comunicart and a YPO member, has made it her life’s mission to invest in and empower women to reach their full potential.
At EXP-Comunicart, Patricia helped drive brand strategies for Coca-Cola, Samsung, P&G, and Unilever: the first agency to do so in sub-Saharan Africa. The success of her partnerships led her to want to empower local businesses in DRC the same way she supported legacy brands, which inspired her next endeavor.
Through her work as Founder and Chairwoman of BIZZOLY HOLDINGS , Patricia is fostering the next generation of women entrepreneurs by providing them with the education, networking and mentorship support needed to launch their businesses.
By the year 2025, her women’s
economic empowerment hub, “The Working Ladies-WIA Hub, ” aims to
support 1,000,000 women entrepreneurs by opening 53 additional hubs around Africa.
For this and her other extensive philanthropic work to empower
entrepreneurship, Patricia has been selected as the 2020 YPO GLOBAL
IMPACT GLOBAL HONOREE FOR THE AFRICA REGION.
YPO, the premier global leadership community of chief executives
driven by the belief that the world needs better leaders, has selected
six global honorees from around the world. The 2020 YPO Global Impact Award Winner will be announced at YPO EDGE , a gathering of industry leaders looking to share thought leadership, in March.
