The AWIEF Growth Accelerator aims to support the unique needs of early-stage and high-growth-oriented women-led ventures with business modelling, growth strategy training, corporate advisory, mentorship, networks, and access to strategic partnerships.
The accelerator provides capital-raising support for growth, scale and sustainability. It builds women’s entrepreneurial leadership capacity, connects them with appropriate sources of capital and helps them scale.
Since 2017, more than 120 early and growth-stage South African women founders have gone through the accelerator programme.
For the 2022 cohort, another 20 female entrepreneurs will be selected from sectors including technology, agribusiness and agro-processing, financial services, manufacturing, health, education, tourism and hospitality, creative industries, and renewable energy.
