HARARE, Zimbabwe — Rhodium Communications has officially announced the launch of its highly anticipated flagship event, the She Connects 2026 Beauty, Wellness, and Lifestyle Conference and Expo, scheduled to take place in the capital city on August 1, 2026.
The premier B2B gathering is slated to convene over 2,000 delegates, positioning itself as Zimbabwe’s definitive arena for networking, capacity building, and deal-making among the continent’s most influential female business leaders and corporate executives.
Curated and driven by Lurydis Rukudzo Bingandadi, Director of Strategy & Operations at Rhodium Communications, the "She Connects" mandate reflects a calculated push to merge inclusive economic growth with high-value commercial strategy. According to company executives, the conference will bring together accomplished women spanning critical economic sectors, including governance, technology, mining, banking, telecoms, finance, manufacturing, and insurance.
"We are positioning ourselves to be more than a media company or a tech firm," Bingandadi stated, emphasizing Rhodium's role as a strategic bridge between technological innovation and African financial growth. "Rhodium Communications exists to empower businesses and leaders to harness the power of digital transformation—not as a fleeting trend, but as a durable foundation for expansion and resilience."
The 2026 conference program is engineered to deliver actionable ROI for its attendees over two days. The agenda features high-level keynote addresses, four distinct panel discussions, and two targeted breakaway sessions split by industry track and theme.
The event will integrate practical business masterclasses alongside holistic wellness experiences, reflecting its multi-dimensional focus on executive performance and lifestyle balance.
Behind the rollout is Rhodium’s core B2B framework, which operates at the intersection of high-end communication technology and financial intelligence. The firm—headquartered at 1135 Kambuzuma Drive in Harare—also publishes FinTech Review Africa, a prominent digital publication serving C-suite executives and policymakers navigating the continent's digital economy.
The operational execution of the summit relies on a collaborative leadership team. Alongside Lurydis R. Bingandadi, Yamari Philonena (Director of Partnerships & Growth) is steering capital and brand connections, while Francis Shupayi Bingandadi Junior (Director of Technology & Innovation) is overseeing the underlying digital infrastructure to ensure tech solutions meet corporate standards.
By anchoring the event within its broader ecosystem of "All Things Tech and All Things Money," Rhodium Communications aims to leverage its premium access to African decision-makers to catalyze sustainable business frameworks for women entrepreneurs nationwide. Corporate partnerships and media collaborations for the August event are currently being finalized through Rhodium's digital and tech portals.
