Every May all around the world Startup Grind gathers to celebrate female entrepreneurs with #SGWomen. That means we meet and get to know women doing great things no matter their business vertical. We'll host both a pitch competition + Fireside chat, spotlighting women on the move. Join us this month as we unpack PR tools for building your brand with Unorthodox PR's founder Sibabalwe Sesmani.

Sibabalwe Sesmani is a B.com Economics & Econometrics graduate. While completing her 3rd year in 2013, at the University of Johannesburg in South Africa she worked for the number 1 Tobacco company in the world under their marketing department. In the same year, she was the youngest and only undergraduate chosen to be part of 20 young women from around South Africa, to participate in ABSA's Young Pioneering Women conference.

Sibabalwe hosts monthly women's entrepreneurship breakfasts in Johannesburg called the Women’s Youthpreneur Breakfast and recently started Unorthodox Black Women's Youthpreneur Network (UBWYN)

The women's entrepreneurship breakfast seeks to close the gender gap for women entrepreneurs in certain industries, by bringing decision makers, industry players, together with the women entrepreneurs. Sibabalwe owns a public relations and communications company called Unorthodox PR and Media Group (Pty)Ltd, which focuses on providing their clients with media exposure to achieve their objectives. She also sits as the director at Arigo Investments on the Executive Board.

In 2015 Sibabalwe produced a 2-hour show on Maboneng radio, called Open Wednesdays that interviewed entrepreneurs working in MABONENG. She was also a co-host at the same radio station.
