On March 8, 2024, the Nation Media Group (NMG), in a landmark partnership with AMG Realtors, took the lead in celebrating women on International Women's Day (IWD) through a spectacular gala dinner that championed the advancements and empowerment of women from all walks of life.

A total of 562 women graced the colourful ceremony that was held at the Windsor Golf Hotel & Country Club, Nairobi. The event became a confluence of culture, elegance, and inspiration, perfectly embodying this year's IWD theme of fostering inclusivity.

With the dress code set to 'African Glam', the evening was a colourful tapestry of fashion, featuring a host of activities that ranged from networking opportunities and financial masterclasses, to golfing experiences. The dinner was a testament to the power of collaborative initiatives in elevating women's roles in society.

The event was graced by notable keynote speakers. They included Kirinyaga County Governor and chairperson of the Council of Governors Anne Waiguru, representing the public sector; and the Managing Director of KCB Bank Kenya, Annastacia Kimtai, representing the private sector. Their inspiring addresses shone a spotlight on the strides women are making in shaping Kenya’s landscape on different fronts.

A panel of distinguished women leaders, including Gwen Kinisu of Prudential Life Assurance and Blandina Ijecha Bobson of Oxfam Kenya, shared their profound stories and insights, enriching the conversation around women's challenges and triumphs. Their presence and discourse elevated the evening, inspiring those in attendance to contribute to a more equitable future.

AMG Realtors Marketing Manager Rebecca Ngigi, spoke too, saying: “At AMG Realtors, we understand the unique strengths women bring to the real estate market. About 70 percent of our clients are women, and we are cognizant that now more than ever, many women are interested in understanding the nuances of the real estate market to make informed decisions.”

She went on: “We sell land that we own. Our prices are all inclusive. We deliver your title deed within 60 days after payment completion. We deliver the title deed to your door step, and we have a permanent residence at AMG Centre. These pillars have enabled us to play a pivotal role in building the confidence of women in their investment endeavours, as well as empowering them with knowledge and guidance they need to thrive. We’ve done this for the last 12 years that we have been in business.”
