Creating space and support for women to thrive.
The Women in Business Initiative is designed to equip women with the tools, training, and networks they need to build sustainable businesses. From entrepreneurship development to digital training and access to funding opportunities, we support women-led enterprises through tailored programmes and partnerships that break barriers and drive success.
Our Sessions Are Designed To:
- Demystify business development for women at different stages
- Provide practical frameworks for starting and growing a business
- Address real-life challenges unique to women entrepreneurs in Africa
- Create cross-border networking that fosters shared learning and accountability.
Workforce for the Future
In our pilot phase, RGF had the unique opportunity to train 100 dynamic women from Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya through a focused business development initiative aimed at building capacity, confidence, and community.
The programme is not only about teaching, it is about listening.
This isn’t just training; it is a launchpad.
Through Our Needs Assessment, One Theme Stands Out Clearly:
- Many of these women have ideas, passion, and drive, but don’t know where or how to start a business.
- Some lack clarity on business models, and others fear failure due to limited support structures. Those who start are unsure how to scale or formalize their operations.
For Our Past Beneficiaries, It Was An Opportunity:
- Seeing their ideas take structured form
- Understanding the importance of value proposition, customer segmentation, and business planning
- Being in a safe space with women like them, from different African countries, all trying to build something meaningful.
We’re proud of what these women achieved during and after the sessions. However, we’re even more inspired by what lies ahead as they continue to build, collaborate, and transform their communities through their enterprise.
