Palma de Mallorca, Spain — For the first time, the vibrant Mediterranean city of Palma de Mallorca will host the Clevenard Media Award 2025, a prestigious international event that celebrates excellence across entertainment, entrepreneurship, fashion, innovation, leadership, and community empowerment.

This landmark gathering, organized by Clevenard SL, will unite distinguished entrepreneurs, government officials, creatives, NGOs, and visionaries from around the world to honor individuals who embody courage, innovation, and social impact.

Among the distinguished nominees is Ms. Jennifer Itosi Marealle, a Tanzanian entrepreneur, senior HR professional, and women empowerment advocate, whose inspiring work bridges the corporate world, creative industries, and social development. Her nomination in the Leadership, Women Empowerment & Creative Entrepreneurship category recognizes her unwavering commitment to advancing women’s leadership, preserving African culture through fashion, and promoting inclusive growth.

A Dynamic Leader and HR Visionary

Ms. Jennifer Itosi Marealle is a Senior Human Resources Professional with extensive experience in the aviation sector, currently serving at Precision Air Tanzania. Over nearly two decades, she has demonstrated exceptional skill in strategic HR management, talent acquisition, employee engagement, and organizational development.

Her professional philosophy emphasizes integrity, inclusivity, and accountability, nurturing workplace cultures that value people as the foundation of productivity and innovation.

Through her leadership, she has influenced corporate transformation by aligning business strategies with human capital development and has trained numerous young professionals to become ethical and empathetic leaders.

Championing Women in Leadership and Economic Inclusion

Beyond her corporate career, Ms. Marealle has emerged as a strong advocate for women’s empowerment and gender equality, taking on key leadership roles that amplify women’s voices across Africa.

As Treasurer of Women in Mining Operations (WIMO), she contributes to programs that support and promote the inclusion of women in the mining and energy sectors — industries long perceived as male-dominated. Her work ensures that women gain access to resources, mentorship, and decision-making spaces where their impact can drive real change.

Simultaneously, as Treasurer of the Commonwealth Business Women Africa (CBW Africa), Tanzania Chapter, she advances the organization’s mission to strengthen the economic participation of women across the continent through financial literacy, business mentorship, and international networking.

In these roles, she advocates tirelessly for equitable representation, highlighting that empowering women is not just a social responsibility but an economic necessity for sustainable development.

Entrepreneurship Rooted in Heritage — Maison de Bantu

Ms. Marealle’s entrepreneurial journey is deeply intertwined with her passion for culture and creativity. As the Founder and CEO of Maison de Bantu, she established a contemporary African fashion brand that celebrates African identity through elegance, authenticity, and craftsmanship.

Maison de Bantu designs and produces high-quality African clothing, accessories, handbags, and footwear, showcasing vibrant textiles such as Vitenge and Kitenge — symbols of African pride and artistry. The brand caters to a diverse clientele including the African diaspora, corporate professionals, tourists, and local fashion enthusiasts, offering each a piece of Africa’s beauty wrapped in sophistication.

More than a fashion house, Maison de Bantu is a movement — a platform empowering women artisans, tailors, and young designers, particularly those from underserved backgrounds, by providing training, employment, and access to markets. Under Ms. Marealle’s vision, fashion becomes both a creative expression and a tool for social and economic empowerment.

A Personal Philosophy of Empowerment and Integrity

Jennifer’s leadership is guided by a simple but powerful belief: “When you empower a woman, you empower a generation.”

She views education, mentorship, and inclusive participation as the three pillars of transformative progress. Through every role — as a corporate leader, entrepreneur, or advocate — she builds systems and communities that uplift others.

Her professional competencies include:

• Strategic Human Resource Management
• Leadership Development & Coaching
• Women Empowerment & Advocacy
• Organizational Culture & Change Management
• Entrepreneurship & Business Development
• Financial Accountability & Governance

Ms. Marealle is also a mentor to emerging female professionals across Africa, inspiring them to dream boldly and lead confidently. She believes that empowerment should be actionable — through education, opportunity, and example.

Education and Professional Development

Her academic foundation reflects her lifelong commitment to excellence and growth. She holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from the Eastern and Southern African Management Institute (ESAMI, 2016) and a Bachelor of Business Administration from Kampala International University (2012).

Her continuous professional development and over 17 years of experience in aviation HR have equipped her to manage complex organizational challenges with empathy and strategic foresight.
