Where to Access Funding For Women-Owned Business
According to new research released by Facebook, women entreprneuer have the potential to boost the South African economy by R175bn by 2022. Most women entrepreneurs start from a lower base and it’s mainly because they have less start-up and investment capital, and possess little or no collateral security. That means businesses run by them are less likely to grow than those run by men.
