What it takes to be a young female entrepreneur in Africa

What it takes to be a young female entrepreneur in Africa

by Melissa Mbazo-Ekpenyong, Deputy Director of the Anzisha Prize programme; and Belinda Munemo is the Founder & CEO of Reekworth According to the World Bank, Africa is the only region in the world with more female than male entrepreneurs. One in four African women start or manage a business, many of them in the informal sector. And as women typically use most of their earnings to support, educate and empower their families and wider communities, more than twice as much as men, the success or failure of these female-owned businesses has an enormous ripple effect. Yet many African women are faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges in their businesses. A report by the World Bank: ‘Profiting from Parity: Unlocking the Potential of Women’s Businesses in Africa 2019’ found that barriers to growth and profitability for women-owned businesses on the continent include social norms, networks and strategic business decisions. Added to these challenges is the entrenched system of social inequality which has resulted in an economic disparity that makes it extremely difficult to succeed. “To enable the empowerment of women entrepreneurs, governments need to implement gender-sensitive policies and other supportive initiatives” The situation has been exacerbated by COVID-19, which has been especially devastating to women-owned […]

Innovation & Female African Enterpreneurs

Innovation & Female African Enterpreneurs

Almost one in four female African entrepreneurs (23.9%) have innovated, according to a study released by UNESCO this week. The study analyses the findings of a survey conducted jointly by UNESCO and the Africa Women’s Forum of 427 women entrepreneurs in ten African countries: Benin, Democratic Republic of Congo, Djibouti, Ghana, Madagascar, Morocco, Mozambique, Senegal, South Africa and Tunisia. Of the women who said they had innovated, 8 had created an application for a mobile phone alone or in partnership and 17 had patented their invention. Others reported having registered their product with regulatory bodies like the Food and Drugs Board in Ghana. Five women described the process for registering their intellectual property as being lengthy, costly and/or bureaucratic, and other women lamented the lack of information and guidance available to them on the patenting process. Some of the women surveyed explained their reluctance to register or patent their product or process by the fact that they ran an informal business. Reasons given for not formally registering their business included considerations of cost and the complexity of bureaucratic procedures. The survey found that eight out of ten respondents used technologies in their businesses. These ranged from traditional and solar ovens to sewing […]
