There’s a lot to admire about Adesuwa Okunbo-Rhodes. She is one of the few African women who have created and managed an investment fund for African women entrepreneurs in the last three years. With a great deal of experience in the finance sector and a passion for promoting gender equality, Adesuwa has focused on changing the country’s narrative for female investors and female-led businesses.
It was sad to see that in a continent of about 1.3 billion people where women make up 50 per cent of the population and account for the highest percentage of female entrepreneurs in the world female entrepreneurs were still not able to get access to adequate funds for their businesses. Statistics at that moment showed that women were being underrepresented within the finance sector.
You’re passionate about funding small and medium-scale businesses. How do you see these types of businesses influencing Africa in the near future? There are a lot of female-owned businesses in Africa that are struggling to scale. What advice would you give African female entrepreneurs to help them position their business to be investor ready?
