ABOUT THE PROGRAM
DigiThrive Kenya is a two-year program that supports young women-owned micro-businesses in the agri-food sector to adopt and use digital tools to grow their enterprises.
The program responds to challenges faced by young women entrepreneurs, including limited access to digital business development services, low digital skills, and limited awareness of suitable financial technology (fintech) solutions. Through a structured digitization accelerator, participants are equipped with practical digital, financial, and marketing skills to help them manage their businesses more efficiently, reach more customers, and increase revenues.
Participants go through a gender-responsive, hybrid learning journey that combines online learning, peer support, practical tools, and expert-led training. The program also connects participants to relevant fintech providers and digital platforms such as mobile payments, e-commerce, and social media for business.
DigiThrive Kenya promotes inclusive access to digital opportunities while supporting young women to overcome social and economic barriers in entrepreneurship.
