Mind the gap: Scaling women-owned enterprises

Women entrepreneurs are central to economic growth, job creation, and resilience in developing countries. Yet women-led firms remain disproportionately small, informal, and credit-constrained despite evidence of viable business models and strong returns.

This International Women’s Day event will move beyond the familiar story of women being recipients of development programmes and toward a bigger question: what would the global economy look like if women-led businesses had the capital to grow, expand, and create jobs?

Info: A reception will be held from 14:00-14:30. The event will then start at 14:30 and finish at 16:00. This will then be followed by a networking session until 17:00.
