At 22\, she developed Guludo Beach Lodge in Mozambique\, which became one of the world’s top 100 hotels while lifting 60\,000 people out of poverty. Her work earned her recognition as the UK’s Young Social Entrepreneur of the Year. \nIn 2020\, she co-founded Raaise\, a platform accelerating funding for pro-planet startups. Raaise connects founders with aligned investors\, streamlining fundraising to drive capital into solutions tackling the world’s biggest challenges. \nFeatured Speaker \nLeah Clearwater boasts a diverse career in the wine tourism and hospitality industry\, working in a range of business types over 27 years. Starting with a PhD in Viticulture and Oenology (grape growing and winemaking)\, she went on to lecture for Curtin University and assisted her students in achieving placements in their desired areas. Having enjoyed roles in consulting\, sales\, marketing and business management\, her true passion lies in education\, and she prides herself on offering engaging and immersive learning experiences.\nLeah has recently launched her new business\, the Margaret River Wine Academy\, with the goal of “cultivating excellence\, one sip at a time”.\n \n#AccelerateAction – IWD 2025\n \nThe global theme for IWD 2025 is Accelerate Action\, focusing on breaking barriers and enabling opportunities for women. \nAccording to data from the World Economic Forum it will take until 2158\, which is roughly five generations from now\, to reach full gender parity. \nFocusing on the need to Accelerate Action emphasizes the importance of taking swift and decisive steps to achieve gender equality. It calls for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face\, both in personal and professional spheres. \n\nWe look forward joining with our community in solidarity with the global movement for equality and celebrating the wonderful women in our region.
