HerVenture Launches in South Africa!
Today we launch our business skills app HerVenture in South Africa for the first time, bringing crucial entrepreneurial skills to at least 1,600 of South Africa’s most promising women entrepreneurs.
This exciting new roll-out, which will support women across South Africa, is made possible thanks to the support of our partner DHL Express and will be delivered by our in-country partner AWIEF.
The HerVenture mobile learning app has been developed specifically for women who own micro, small and medium sized enterprises in low and middle income countries. South Africa is the fifth country in which HerVenture has been launched, following the app’s roll-out in Kenya in summer 2020. It has supported over 41,000 women since its launch in 2018 and is available for free to women across the country to support them with the growth of their businesses. South African women entrepreneurs can now download HerVenture through the App Store on iOS and the Google Play Store on Android. It’s also currently available in Nigeria, Kenya, Vietnam and Indonesia – and will hopefully be coming to more countries very soon.
Bringing HerVenture to South Africa forms part of our ambitious 100,000 Women Campaign
HerVenture is highly scalable and adaptable. The Foundation is actively seeking funding partnerships to enable the app to launch in, but not limited, to Rwanda, Ethiopia, Uganda, Ghana, Tanzania and Mozambique, with each iteration carefully adapted for a local context. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss potential partnerships!
