Applications open

Take a booth. Take the stage.

Applications for the 2026 Marketplace are open to women-led businesses at any stage, in any sector.

An exhibition stall at the Marketplace
Exhibit

Sell to buyers who came to buy.

An exhibition booth puts your product in front of retailers, distributors, corporates, and hundreds of individual customers walking the floor across both days. You sell on the day. You leave with orders, contacts, and visibility.

Pitch

Make your case from the stage.

Pitching happens on Day One, in front of investors, buyers, and partners. Selected founders take the stage, tell their story, and make their case. Slots are limited and selected on merit.

Who Can Apply

Any stage. Any sector. If a woman leads it and it's real — apply.

Whether you have a stall at Kariakoo or a company with a board, you belong on this floor. Selection is made against the SheFound Standard: a woman genuinely leading, a real market, and a business built to grow.
