  3. Fatima Babakura
    Fatima is a founder and creative director of Timabee, a luxury accessory brand which she created out of her passion for sketching designs. We love when we see young women charting a course for their lives early on.

    Fatima’s passion for women and girls has inspired her to continue to grow Timabee, as well as start other businesses that would create job opportunities, especially in Africa. She is also the co- founder of Signature Boutique in Canada, a multi-brand boutique that aims to showcase the works of African based designers to the world.
