The partnership underscores a shared commitment to equipping women and young professionals with the tools, knowledge, and opportunities needed to achieve personal and professional success.

Scheduled for June 19, 2026, at the Balmoral Convention Center, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, the SheCan Do More Conference is an annual gathering designed to inspire, empower, and equip participants to maximize their potential and create meaningful impact in their communities and industries.

Founder of SheCan Nigeria and Deputy Managing Director of MBR Signature Ltd, Dr. Ezinne Ezeani, described the conference as a platform that continues to inspire bold thinking, innovation, and action among women and young professionals.

“The SheCan Do More Conference is more than an event; it is a platform for transformation. We are bringing together accomplished leaders, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, and change-makers for a day of learning, networking, mentorship, and empowerment. Our goal is to equip participants with the confidence, skills, and connections they need to thrive in their careers, businesses, and communities,” she said.

Speaking on the significance of the partnership, Ezeani noted that BIC’s longstanding commitment to creativity, learning, and self-expression aligns strongly with SheCan Nigeria’s mission.

“The partnership with BIC is unique because it goes beyond brand visibility to support the development of women through learning, creativity, and opportunity. As a brand that has empowered people for generations through simple and reliable tools for writing and expression, BIC aligns strongly with SheCan Nigeria’s mission of helping women unlock their potential and take meaningful steps toward personal and professional success,” she said.

She added that the collaboration would create an inspiring environment where participants can access practical learning opportunities, mentorship, career development resources, and entrepreneurial support.

According to the organisers, attendees can look forward to keynote presentations, engaging panel discussions, practical leadership and career insights, networking opportunities with industry leaders, inspiring success stories, and valuable connections that can open doors for personal and professional growth.

Marketing Manager, BIC Nigeria, Foluke Femi-Sanda, said the partnership reflects the company’s commitment to supporting initiatives that empower women and create lasting social impact.

The SheCan Do More Conference brings together ambitious women from diverse industries and backgrounds, creating a platform where BIC can reinforce its commitment to education, empowerment, creativity, and social impact,” she said.

Femi-Sanda noted that BIC views the collaboration as an investment in a movement that is helping women translate their aspirations into tangible outcomes.
