Before launching Strand Sahara, Rashida worked for over 9 years in London and Dubai at global law firm Hogan Lovells, where she represented some of the world’s largest corporations in international arbitration disputes worth up to billions of dollars. Her work took her all over the world, but the most memorable wins were for businesses operating in Africa. She saw first-hand their ability to truly transform the economies in which they operate and their crucial role in creating secure livelihoods and increasing prosperity.
In 2018 she decided to combine my passions for entrepreneurship, African business and the emerging field of legal technology to start Strand Sahara, with the mission to empower entrepreneurs with the legal and business support they need to grow and attract investment, using technology to make those services more affordable, accessible and relevant to start-ups and SMEs in the UK and across Africa.
Over the past 5 years, she has regularly presented to audiences at legal and business forums locally and internationally and have published a number of articles on important legal developments and issues of interest to businesses in Africa. She has also championed diversity in the UK legal sector, winning several awards for my work to promote diversity and investment in Africa.
