Cherie Blair Foundation, DHL Express and Synapsis partner to support Kenyan women entrepreneurs Shares The Cherie Blair Foundation for Women, Sinapsis and DHL Express have partnered to bring crucial entrepreneurial skills and support to over 3,500 of Kenya’s most promising women entrepreneurs. The Foundation’s business skills app dubbed HerVenture and its online 7-week investment training program Road to Growth, aims to help women grow their business and protect them from the ongoing pandemic. Emily Scott, Director of Programs, the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women said, “Sub-Saharan African economies lose nearly $100 billion a year because of the gender gap in the labour market and the current COVID-19 crisis is exacerbating many existing inequalities the women entrepreneurs we work with already face. Following our pilot’s impact in Kenya last year, we can’t wait to scale up our support to reach many more women entrepreneurs.”

However, as the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women’s new research on women entrepreneurs in low and middle-income countries reveals, COVID-19 threatens to roll back the clock on women’s entrepreneurship. The Foundation’s comprehensive report draws on responses from 125 women across 32 countries, with the highest percentage of responses coming from Nigerian women. Most (83.8%) women surveyed report that the pandemic has had a negative impact on their businesses, and nearly four in ten (38.5%) report their business will or may have to close as a result.
