The Managing Partner of Aruwa Capital, a Lagos-based equity and investment company, Adesuwa Okunbo-Rhodes, has complained about the funding gap women-focused businesses are grappling with.

She said Aruwa Capital was creating funds to invest in innovative businesses that are founded or led by women. Okunbo-Rhodes explained that Aruwa invests in innovative businesses, poised for scale, that provides essential goods and services to the rapidly expanding female economy, and businesses that are founded or led by women or have gender-diverse teams.
