0

The Women Startup Competition Africa chapter is launching, and is calling upon African women-led enterprises that want to go global to enter. 

The Women Startup Competition (WSC) is a non-profit organisation that seeks to increase access to funding opportunities for women-led businesses. In its nine years of existence in Europe, the programme has assisted more than 620 female-founded early-stage firms in 15 countries.

This year the Women Startup Competition has launched an Africa chapter, led by regional ambassador Lebo Mashaba, who is the CEO and founder of Real PPE, and collaborators The Tech Collective. 

The aim of the Africa chapter is to promote innovative women-led enterprises across the continent, and to give three high-potential finalists the opportunity to present an international investor audience at the ninth global Women Startup Competition.

Applications are open now.
