WHAT IS INSPIRING GATHERINGS

Inspiring Gatherings is a multi-faceted platform created by women for women to connect and learn from each other.

We aim to inspire and empower women through community events centered on health and well-being, arts and culture, personal development and entrepreneurial pursuits.

Filling the need for English speaking gatherings for women in Geneva, we have developed and are organising a successful and unique series of speaker events fostering an evergrowing community.

Our women guest speakers come from many different fields of work from artists to entrepreneurs and social advocates to women in business. We are also proud to promote and support their unique talents by providing them with a platform to increase their exposure and share their knowledge.

Since 2022, our speaker series have covered a wide range of topics such as art, finance, stress management, philanthropy and hormonal health among others.

Meet the Team

AWA SAKHO

Founder

Born and raised in Madrid, Awa has lived in London, Zurich and New York before settling down in Geneva with her family over 10 years ago. She is an economist and has worked in Investment Banking and Alternative Investments. Throughout the years, Awa met incredible women from diverse professional and cultural backgrounds. These many encounters crystalised the idea that connecting with other women and sharing experiences stimulates us to further explore our own talents and possibilities as well as our dreams and aspirations.

SASKIA CUDDY BEZZOLA

Founder

After an international education, a career as a litigator and becoming a mother, Saskia was eager to explore her more creative side and founded her business, @BagsByInlaced, in Geneva in 2020. Throughout her life she has always fully appreciated the importance and tremendous value of meeting and exchanging with other women. Each shared conversation has sparked interest, generated new questions and ideas as well as infused positive energy into all aspects of her life. This motivated Saskia to launch a second business bringing together women to exchange, grow and learn from each other.
