Entrepreneurship and Acceleration: Questions From The Field

Youth Entrepreneurship in Africa

Feb 2015

In this brief, we use data from the Entrepreneurship Acceleration Research Initiative in order to respond to a question submitted by the MasterCard Foundation about Youth Entrepreneurship in Africa:

"At The MasterCard Foundation, we have a portfolio of youth entrepreneurship projects that we support in Sub Saharan Africa. We’re always looking for data to better understand the space and to inform our programming. I’m wondering if you could share any data by ages 18-24 and 25-30, and by African country or region if possible. Do you see anything interesting under these parameters?"
