Economic Growth Accelerator 2022

Picture

Developing Entrepreneurs for a Better Future!

Entrepreneurs are a key enabler for the job creation and economic growth currently required in South Africa.  At WomHub, our focus is on upskilling and developing women-founded businesses within Science, Technology, Engineering and Manufacturing (STEM) with the goal of building a better, more sustainable future.

Following the successful first run of our Economic Growth Accelerator, we are excited to invite South African women entrepreneurs with STEM businesses to participate in the 2022 Economic Growth Accelerator (#EGA2022). This year-long hybrid programme with an in-person and virtual offering, focusses on supporting businesses to accelerate growth through leadership development and intensive entrepreneurial support.
Our Economic Growth Accelerator consists of two tracks: a SMME and Venture track.

1.The SMME Track

Aim: Support women founders in Small, Medium and Micro Enterprises (SMME).

Programme Focus: The SMME Track focuses on steady growth companies, in established STEM markets. It is an opportunity to support the growth of the company, unlock its potential and hire more people within its growth trajectory.

2.The Venture Track

Aim: Support high growth opportunity businesses (Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to Pre-revenue).

Programme Focus: The Venture Track is designed for women founders of potential high growth ventures. It is designed for early-stage founders who already have a prototype or product and are looking to scale with venture support.
Our Economic Growth Accelerator kicked off in August 2022 for 25 South African women entrepreneurs. Support and development include access to WomHub’s unique innovation and co-working space in Johannesburg, live master classes, one-on-one venture clinics and in-residence working sessions.

Benefits:
  1. Development of their businesses through personal growth and increased commercial insights.
  2. Founders will be Exposed to investors in the African landscape.
  3. Interaction with fellow entrepreneurs in South Africa.
  4. Access to one-on-one mentorship and venture clinics with subject matter experts.
  5. Accelerator provides each business with a stipend which is allocated to a range of business support services.
