Mummy Summit Digital 2020 was a runaway success. With four engaging panels featuring some of the most influential Nigerian Millennial Mothers- Mummy Summit Digital had over 1200+ attendees from 14 different countries, making it the biggest Digital Conference for Mothers in Africa.
Mummy Summit Digital topics range from entrepreneurship and finances, to health and wellness- all with the goal of exploring the lives and needs of the African Millennial Mother- and this year promises to be even bigger and more exciting than last year.
