About Annick Thiombiano
Annick empowers product-based entrepreneurs to go global while empowering herself and others to build community wealth, the kind of wealth that money can't buy.
Growing up, Annick spent a lot of time with her grandfather, the village king, in Burkina Faso, where she learned that solving real problems changes real lives. Moving to New York, she was shocked to find people with massive financial wealth but no community wealth, and they were lonely and unfulfilled.
After leading community projects reaching tens of thousands and being recognized as one of 200 Young Leaders in the world by Women Deliver, she discovered that business creates lasting change.
She simplifies import-export so founders scale confidently, reviews products using her POWER Framework, and teaches community wealth building through trust and belonging.
When she's not reviewing products or speaking about community wealth, you'll find Annick creating art, modeling, or having fun.
Why community wealth?
Community wealth is valuing people as your greatest resource. It’s the missing piece in modern life - and the solution to the loneliness epidemic we're facing. In a world where disconnection is the norm, community wealth brings back what we truly need: belonging, support, and human connection.
Are You Ready to Go Global?
The POWER Framework is a practical system that gives your product a “passport” to succeed globally. It stands for Planning, Operations, Worth, Efficiency, and Resilience - the five essentials every product-based business needs to compete internationally. From setting clear goals, mastering production, and building a trusted brand, to scaling smartly and staying strong through challenges, the framework helps entrepreneurs turn local hustle into global success. It’s not just about exporting - it’s about making your whole business world-ready.
