ABS Podcast
Bold Stories from AfricaN Female Founders
The African Business Stories Podcast is where vision meets voice. Hosted by Akaego Okoye, each episode dives deep into the journeys of Africa’s most inspiring women entrepreneurs — from startup challenges to breakthrough moments, from local beginnings to global impact.
Why It Matters:
Africa is home to the highest rate of female entrepreneurship in the world, yet women’s voices remain underrepresented in media and business conversations. By putting their stories front and center, the ABS Podcast not only inspires listeners but also connects founders to opportunities, networks, and markets they might never reach otherwise.
Our Reach:
- Listeners in 40+ countries
- Guests spanning fintech, fashion, energy, agriculture, and more
- Goal: feature one female business leader from each African country
“You cannot wait for perfect conditions. You build with what you have and grow from there.”
