We’re thrilled to announce our keynote speaker: Samantha Skyring, Founder of Oryx Desert Salt.

Samantha will be sharing her remarkable journey. From selling her home to buy 34 tonnes of salt, to building a proudly South African brand now served on tables across the country. Her story is one of courage, purpose, and vision. This is the perfect inspiration to close out our year together.

The Gwen Event is, at its core, a professional networking event. But it’s also more than that. It’s where visibility, connection and collaboration meet. This is a celebration of all women in business. Whether you’re a consultant, creative, product maker, or business service professional, you’ll leave with new contacts, fresh ideas, and momentum to carry you into 2026.
