In recent years, more female entrepreneurs have continued to make their mark in the world of business.

In fact, studies show that women in Africa are more likely than men to be entrepreneurs. Women make up 27 per cent of the continent’s self-employed population, according the United Nations. Uganda and Botswana have the highest percentage of women entrepreneurs.
