Business Week Afrika is a pan-African entrepreneurship platform dedicated to helping people start, run, and grow successful businesses.

2,000+ entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers, and industry leaders

Business Week Afrika is a pan-African entrepreneurship platform dedicated to helping people start, run, and grow successful businesses.

We exist to close the gap between ambition and execution by equipping entrepreneurs with the knowledge, skills, networks, and opportunities they need to build sustainable ventures.

We are an Entrepreneur Support Organization on a mission to drive economic empowerment and reduce youth unemployment across Africa by strengthening small and medium-sized enterprises and startups—the backbone of the continent’s economy.

Our primary audience is entrepreneurs who are already running businesses but feel stuck or constrained by gaps in knowledge, strategy, or execution. We support founders who are asking practical questions like “What do I need to do next to grow?” and provide them with clear, actionable pathways to move their businesses forward.
