Empowering women entrepreneurs in developing countries
eTrade for Women combines the transformative power of women entrepreneurship with the positive impact of digital technologies. We support women digital entrepreneurs from developing countries to help them thrive as business leaders, and emerge as an influential voice in the public policy debate.
eTrade for Women benefits from the financial support of the Netherlands and Sweden and is implemented in collaboration with eTrade for all partners.
The eTrade for Women Advocates are successful and influential women entrepreneurs who are leading digital businesses and are committed to tackling the gender gap.

Through their work, leadership and influence, the Advocates inspire and empower other women entrepreneurs. They help us bring women’s voices to the front to shape more inclusive digital ecosystems.
