In a time when women are daily redefining what strength, success, and survival look like, one platform continues to echo their voices, honour their journeys, and power their next leap. That platform is UpYouWomen, and in 2025, it returns with even greater momentum two full days of authenticity, connection, and unshakeable vision.
Now in its third year, the UpYouWomen Conference is set to hold on Friday, August 29th and Saturday, August 30th, 2025, at Victoria Hall, EbonyLife Place, Victoria Island, Lagos, with the theme “UNBOUND: Rising Beyond Limits.”
This year marks a historic shift from the traditional one-day format to a two-day immersive experience designed to equip women to break free — from limitations, labels, and lingering fears.
A Growing Legacy of Resilience and Rebirth
Each year, UpYouWomen brings women together in a transformative space to rise — first with Building Bridges From Within (2023), then Through the Fire, Triumphing in Adversity (2024), and now, to UNBOUND… Rising Beyond Limits
This year’s theme calls every woman who has ever questioned her worth, delayed her dreams, or silenced her voice to step forward — into boldness, healing, and divine alignment.
The 2025 edition is carefully curated to include a remarkable line-up of influential voices, thought leaders, creatives, and coaches who are shaping culture and rewriting what is possible for women across generations.

From One Day to a Movement
What began in 2023 as a heartfelt one-day convening has grown into a bold, multi-day movement. The expansion to two days allows space for not only storytelling but skill-building — with breakout sessions, wellness lounges, networking corridors, mentoring opportunities, exhibition zones, and a celebration of womanhood.
“This transition isn’t just about time,” says the convener, Ezinne Kufre-Ekanem, “It’s about depth. It’s about honouring the process of unlearning, healing, and rising with intention.”
