The Zululand Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ZCCI) is set to host one of the most anticipated events of the year – the Bloom & Thrive Women’s Day Celebration – on 21 August 2025 at the stunning Thembela Venue. With the theme “Celebrating Every Woman’s Season to Thrive,” this event promises an empowering afternoon of bold conversations, personal growth, and sisterhood.
Women across industries are invited to step into their season of blooming, whether in their careers, personal lives, or communities. This year’s event is not just a celebration, but a call to action for women to take up space, speak up, and embrace their strength and elegance with pride.
A Space to Bloom
The event will feature thought-provoking talks, inspirational journeys, and panel discussions from dynamic women leaders and change-makers. Mental health, alternative medicine, entrepreneurship, self-leadership, and the power of storytelling are just some of the themes expected to resonate through the day.
“The Bloom & Thrive event is about more than just celebration,” says Vanessa Ncobela, Executive Manager of ZCCI. “It’s about creating a space where women feel seen, heard, and uplifted. It’s about acknowledging the resilience it takes to grow and the courage it takes to bloom, especially in the face of adversity.”
Bold Conversations, Real Impact
Guests can expect raw and refreshing dialogue on what it means to be a woman in today’s world – from navigating motherhood and leadership to redefining success on your own terms. The event aims to honour the unapologetic boldness of women, providing a platform for authentic conversations that spark healing, confidence, and community.
