Top 15 Women Entrepreneurs Selected for Women in Tech Botswana 2025 Cohort. Fifteen dynamic women entrepreneurs have been selected for the prestigious Women in Tech Cohort 2025, a programme designed to empower women-led, tech-enabled businesses across Botswana.
This initiative, supported by a leading financial institution, underscores a growing commitment to inclusive entrepreneurship and economic development by nurturing innovative businesses driven by women. The selected participants represent a wide range of sectors, each using technology to create scalable, impact-driven solutions for local and regional challenges.
Over the coming months, the cohort will undergo a transformative journey that includes tailored mentorship, business refinement, and investor-readiness training. The programme aims to prepare these founders to expand their operations, attract investment, and build sustainable businesses that contribute meaningfully to Botswana’s digital and economic landscape.
For entrepreneurs and startups across Botswana, this development sends a clear message: the ecosystem is evolving and opening doors for inclusive innovation. The focus on women-led enterprises reflects the country’s broader push to strengthen representation and support underrepresented voices in technology and entrepreneurship.
The cohort will gain access to industry experts, networking opportunities, and potential funding pipelines, helping to position their ventures for long-term success. The ultimate goal is to support these businesses in scaling up and becoming powerful agents of economic transformation.
The announcement has sparked enthusiasm among local business leaders, particularly those advocating for greater participation of women in STEM and tech-based entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs are encouraged to follow the journey of the cohort, attend future demo days, and collaborate across the ecosystem to foster continued growth.
