Entertainment to Politics to Business: 20 Global Power Women of Color to Watch in 2016

SOUTH AFRICA: Louisa Mojela

Mojela is CEO of Women Investment Portfolio Holdings Limited (WIPHOLD), an investment and operating company owned by black women to advocate for the empowerment of black women.

The company has a diversified portfolio from financial services to mining to infrastructure development, and is the first women’s group to be listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. With black women around the world being the highest-growing entrepreneurial group, keeping up with what this organization will be doing in the international business space would be ideal, especially in South Africa, where technological and agricultural advances are taking place.
