PZ Cussons Nigeria, through its flagship brands Joy and Morning Fresh, has partnered with SheCan Nigeria for the forthcoming SheCan Do More Conference 2026, reinforcing a shared commitment to advancing women’s empowerment, leadership development, and opportunities for personal and professional growth.

The collaboration brings together two organisations with a common purpose of improving lives and creating meaningful impact, particularly among women who continue to shape families, businesses, communities, and the broader economy.

Scheduled for June 19, 2026, at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, the SheCan Do More Conference is an annual platform designed to inspire, equip, and empower women and young professionals to maximise their potential and drive positive change within their industries and communities.

Speaking about the conference, Ezinne Ezeani, founder of SheCan Nigeria and deputy managing director of MBR Signature Ltd, described the event as a gathering of accomplished leaders, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, and changemakers committed to learning, mentorship, networking, and transformation.

“The SheCan Do More Conference is designed to inspire, empower, and equip women and young professionals to maximise their potential and create meaningful impact. This year’s conference will bring together accomplished leaders, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, and changemakers for a day of learning, networking, and transformation,” she said.

Commenting on the partnership, Ezeani said the collaboration reflects the shared values of both organisations and their commitment to supporting women and fostering positive change.

“The partnership with PZ Cussons, through its trusted brands Joy and Morning Fresh, is particularly significant because it brings together two organisations that are passionate about improving lives and creating meaningful impact. While SheCan Nigeria focuses on empowering women through personal development, leadership, career advancement, mentorship, and entrepreneurship opportunities, Joy and Morning Fresh have built a strong connection with women and families by supporting everyday excellence and wellbeing,” she said.

According to her, the partnership goes beyond brand visibility and centres on investing in women who are creating change across different sectors of society.

“This collaboration is about creating a platform that inspires women to unlock their potential, pursue growth opportunities, and build lasting impact in their homes, workplaces, businesses, and communities,” she added.

Participants at the conference will benefit from keynote presentations, panel discussions, practical leadership and career development sessions, networking opportunities with industry leaders, inspiring success stories, and connections that support both personal and professional advancement.

“This partnership is important for PZ Cussons because it provides an opportunity to engage directly with a community of ambitious, purpose-driven women who are committed to growth and transformation. The SheCan Do More Conference brings together emerging and established leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and changemakers from diverse sectors,” she said.

The partnership also reflects our dedication to championing initiatives that uplift women, strengthen communities, and create opportunities for future generations to thrive,” she added.

Organisers expect the conference to attract hundreds of participants from across industries, creating a platform for collaboration, innovation, mentorship, and leadership development while strengthening the networks that support women’s advancement across society.
