About

Likelemba - /Lee-kele-mba/

Lingala noun: an African solidarity savings mechanism where several members put a certain sum of money in a "pot" and, every month, the total amount contained in the pot is then donated to one of the participating members.

 

We are a network of Congolese Female Entrepreneurs and Go-getters who strive to BE the difference our community needs through this network that allows every woman to feel supported, empowered and "at home". 

As a collective, we are able to share our skills, ideas and tools to contribute and benefit from a rich network of like-minded people.  As young adults of Congolese decent, we share the love, passion and aspirations to positively contribute to our nation and communities in the diaspora. 

The well structured and safely built funding (Likelemba) cycles gives the entrepreneurs the opportunity to bring ideas and projects to life with a network of talented like minded women who want to see you win. In the long run our society functions in a healthier way with flourishing industries.   

Code Likelemba gives the opportunity to grow, learn, collaborate and be part of a culture that is built on pillar values such as integrity, trust, discipline, commitment, accountability and professionalism. Through our events, workshops, socials and online international network you can connect with other women and organisations that could take your business and career to the next level. The strength and the net-worth of CODE Likelemba is determined by the realised potential, progression and success of every woman in our network. 
 

"la grande chose à propos de ce réseau est que chacun doit être responsable du changement qu'il souhaite voir"
