In this edition of the Business Day Spotlight, we talk about the progress, and lack thereof, of women led businesses in SA.
Our host Mudiwa Gavaza is joined by Nontando Mthethwa, head of public affairs and communications at the Allan Gray Orbis Foundation.
Topics of discussion include: the work of the foundation; has any progress been made in getting more women into entrepreneurship in SA; statistics around the the rate of female business owners in SA; contribution of women to the formal and informal economy; challenges faced by this group of people; and ways that such hurdles can be overcome.
