A Fresh Flight into 2025

Dear Stonechat Members,

Welcome to what promises to be an extraordinary year! We hope your 2025 has taken wing beautifully, both personally and professionally.

Stonechat kicks off this year with an exciting events calendar, including exclusive quarterly meetups for Stonechat members and ABL candidates. These events are free of charge for ABL candidates and Stonechat members as part of our commitment to building a stronger, more resilient business community. We've planned this 2025 calendar with the mindset to deliver engaging and meaningful interactions for this community.

We're also delighted to share an evolution of the ABL offering that enhances our capability to partner African business leaders from across the continent to deliver growth in their businesses and fulfilment in their lives. We are grateful for the active engagement and feedback from Stonechat members, which has informed this evolution.
