This annual summit brings together women entrepreneurs, key stakeholders in the financial sector throughout the Global South, as well as academics/researchers, influential global business leaders and policy makers, to explore ways to put women at the centre-stage of the empowerment and economic development agenda in order to realise the full potential of the region. The summit is a collaborative effort of all the partner institutions, local authorities, and research centres.

Women Entrepreneurship Summit

In order to mitigate the disproportionately severe impacts of Covid-19 on women entrepreneurs in low- and middle-income countries of the Global South, there is need for inclusive and gender-sensitive approaches. Our webinars bring together business leaders, academics/researchers, local authorities, and NGOs together to champion the cause of women entrepreneurs and to take a practical look at how we can provide them with the right tools and services to thrive in the future digital economy.
