Its focus on African women entrepreneurs and their unique ability to merge profit and social motives showcases the innate strength, courage and dynamism of our women, and reinforces the pivotal role that they are playing in shaping the Continent's bright future.? ?Ndidi Okonkwo Nwuneli, Founder of LEAP Africa, Co-Founder of AACE Foods and Sahel Capital, and Author of Social Innovation in Africa: A Practical Guide for Scaling Impact. ?Amanobea Boateng provides a truly thought-provoking book.? ?Dr. Valerie Sabatier, Grenoble Ecole de Management  Contributing to academic discussions on entrepreneurship and gender in Africa, this book provides coverage of recent trends and an exploration of the evolution of female entrepreneurship over time. This innovative new text, written from an African woman?s perspective, fills a gap in current literature on this topic and places important focus on the role of female entrepreneurship in Africa?s development as a continent. Focussing on key issues such as social feminism and the capability approach, the author addresses the possibility of a potential overlap between social entrepreneurship and female entrepreneurship in Africa. Insightful accounts of women from countries such as South Africa, Namibia and Ghana, along with theoretical research into the further development and advancement of female entrepreneurs, make this book an important must-read for those interested in entrepreneurship and gender in Africa. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aInternational business enterprises 606 $aAfrica?Economic conditions 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aMarkets 606 $aDiversity in the workplace 606 $aAfrican Business$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/525030 606 $aEntrepreneurship$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/514000 606 $aEmerging Markets/Globalization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/525010 606 $aDiversity Management/Women in Business$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/517060 615 0$aInternational business enterprises. 615 0$aAfrica?Economic conditions. 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aMarkets. 615 0$aDiversity in the workplace. 615 14$aAfrican Business. 615 24$aEntrepreneurship. 615 24$aEmerging Markets/Globalization. 615 24$aDiversity Management/Women in Business. 676 $a650.1082 700 $aBoateng$b Amanobea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059269 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298178403321 996 $aAfrican Female Entrepreneurship$92504829 997 $aUNINA
