Case Study: The Ibukun Awosika Leadership Academy builds a global leadership community with Whova

The Ibukun Awosika Leadership Academy builds community with Whova and exchanges 45,000+ messages

The Ibukun Awosika Leadership Academy faced the challenge of building a strong international community for its hybrid International Woman Leadership Conference, which brought together over 400 C-Suite women both in-person and virtually. Organizers needed to efficiently facilitate networking among all attendees, manage last-minute logistical communications, and gain insights into attendee engagement without relying on surveys. They turned to the event management platform Whova for a solution.

Whova provided tools like its Community Board and messaging features to help attendees forge connections both online and in-person. The platform's Announcements feature streamlined logistical communications, while its Attendee Activity Metrics gave organizers valuable data-driven insights into session popularity. The solution was highly successful, fostering a vibrant community that exchanged over 45,000 messages and shared more than 700 photos during the event.
