Ghana: Telecel’s ‘The Empire SHE Built’ webinar motivates female entrepreneurs

In a world where female entrepreneurs are consistently breaking barriers, Telecel Ghana has taken the initiative to empower more women to establish and grow their businesses. As part of its SME Month activities, the company has launched a series of webinars under the Women in Business (WIB) initiative, aimed at inspiring, equipping, and accelerating the growth of women-led small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

The inaugural webinar, titled “The Empire SHE Built,” was hosted by the renowned media personality and entrepreneur Deloris Frimpong Manso, commonly known as Delay. It featured three outstanding Ghanaian businesswomen: Beryl Agyekum-Ayaaba, CEO of Echohouse Africa; Yaa Birago, Founder and CEO of Soko Bags Ltd.; and Afi Amoro, CEO of Jandel Ltd.

These accomplished women shared their inspiring journeys of resilience, determination, and growth in building successful entrepreneurial ventures.

Telecel SME Month emphasizes the vital role that small and medium-sized enterprises play in driving economic growth, creating employment opportunities, and fostering innovation.

Acknowledging the distinctive challenges faced by female-led businesses, Telecel Business launched this initiative to offer tailored support, resources, and products designed to empower women entrepreneurs to grow and succeed.

The candid discussions among the panelists enabled them to share their personal and professional challenges, including balancing motherhood, navigating business expansion, and addressing societal expectations imposed on women.

This initiative reflects Telecel Ghana’s commitment to empowering female entrepreneurs and highlights the significance of creating platforms that promote collaboration, mentorship, and growth.

The experiences shared by these remarkable women emphasized that their success stems from hard work, consistency, innovation, and adaptability.
