Pan-African media company Face2Face Africa will be hosting the eighth edition of its annual fest, the Pan-African Weekend, from July 18-21.

Held in New York City, the Pan-African Weekend is a prestigious annual celebration of black culture and achievement. It is the only national conference designed to connect, empower, and celebrate the African diaspora community while fostering greater intercultural, social and economic relations.

The action-packed conference features four major events: the Pan-African Women Forum; the IAAPA Networking Mixer; the FACE List Awards gala; and the Closing Jazz Brunch.

The 2019 PAW will kick off on Thursday, July 18, with the Pan-African Women Forum which presents the opportunity to meet, engage, and network with influential women in business and other industries as they share their journeys and important life, business and career lessons. The event features a panel discussion followed by a networking session.

On Friday, July 19, attendees will have the opportunity to network with business leaders and other like-minded professionals at the IAAPA Networking Mixer.

The highlight of the Pan-African Weekend is the FACE List Awards gala, which will take place on Saturday, July 20.
