The women-led high-growth enterprise taskforce was founded by the government to:
- identify the main barriers women experience in accessing high-growth capital
- suggest areas to stimulate regional opportunities based on robust data and engagement
- raise the profile of women-led high-growth entrepreneurship
This report details the:
- gaps in funding female entrepreneurs experience, and the challenges they face in becoming entrepreneurs
- recommendations on how to remove these barriers and encourage more women to become high-growth entrepreneurs
The taskforce was established in May 2022 to identify ways to increase the number of women-led high-growth businesses. Although initiated by the government, the taskforce is independent and business-led.
