A new guide for, and by, African women entrepreneurs provides first-hand tips on how to kick start and implement a digital transformation roadmap to build business resilience to Covid-19 and other shocks.

The Digital Transformation Playbook for Africa’s Women Entrepreneurs is the first in a series of digital tools for Africa’s women entrepreneurs, produced by the Lionesses of Africa Public Benefit Corporation, with the support of the African Development Bank through its Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa initiative, also known as AFAWA. The playbook features 24 leading African women entrepreneurs who share their personal digital transformation “playbooks”.

“Digital transformation can be a game changer for women-led enterprises. It may even help accelerate access to finance, markets, knowledge and innovation for a segment that until now has been largely unserved,” said Esther Marieme Dassanou, the Bank’s Manager for AFAWA.

“Digital transformation may also lift unconscious biases that added to the barriers women faced pre-Covid,” Dassanou added.
