The partnership, which is through a grant from the United States African Development Foundation (USADF), will give women the opportunity to register for the training programme at a highly subsidised fee. This programme will help them build capacity, increase investment – readiness and link female entrepreneurs to appropriate sources of finance to grow/expand their businesses by leveraging on debt, and equity or grants
