TEDxGeorge Women 2026 Speaker
Lorenza Allan is the founder of The GWEN Group—Gathering Women Entrepreneurs Network—a relationship-led business network helping women build meaningful connections, increase their visibility and create greater opportunities through community.
An entrepreneur, community builder and event producer, Lorenza has worked across membership, events, content and business networking in both South Africa and the UK. Her work is grounded in a simple belief: business may be changing rapidly, but people still choose, trust and recommend people.
Through GWEN, Lorenza is creating spaces where women can develop their confidence and competence, become more visible and build the relationships that help businesses grow. She is passionate about ensuring that, as the way we work and communicate continues to evolve, genuine human connection remains at the heart of business.
