About EmpowerHER
EmpowerHER is a platform by ACE Advisors that goes beyond awareness to produce real, measurable change for women entrepreneurs and leaders.
Why EmpowerHER Exists
Women entrepreneurs and leaders across Africa face structural, institutional, and cultural barriers that limit their economic participation — from collateral rigidity in finance to exclusion from high-level policy conversations.
EmpowerHER was created to change that. By convening the right people, publishing evidence-based research, and facilitating actionable dialogues, we translate conversation into policy, partnership, and investment.
Our Vision
A world where women entrepreneurs and leaders have equal access to finance, markets, networks, and policy influence — and where their voices are central to shaping the economies they participate in.
Our Values
Amplify
We create spaces where women's voices shape policy and investment decisions.
Connect
We bridge sectors, disciplines, and geographies to build lasting relationships.
Act
Every dialogue produces tangible outcomes — recommendations, partnerships, capital.
Impact
We measure success by policy adoption, investment mobilized, and networks built.
Inclusion
We center diverse women's experiences — across sectors, regions, and backgrounds.
Evidence
Every recommendation is grounded in research, data, and lived experience.
