APEC Women’s Business Activator Program
The APEC Women’s Business Activator Program aims to help women-led businesses grow globally by strengthening the capacity of private sector participants from women-led SMEs to build business competencies and help navigate barries to both local and global markets. The APEC Women’s Business Activator Program supports participants to navigate and overcome barriers to full and equal participation and leadership, including in entrepreneurship, and as related to gender inequalities and other inequalities.
​According to the OECD, policy makers already use tailored programs to support growth-oriented women entrepreneurs, but more is needed to cultivate ‘women’s entrepreneurial aspirations’ and to ‘address market failures in areas of skills and finance and improve access to networks.
​
Selected women candidates from eligible economies will receive free access to training material, participation in online workshops, personalised mentoring, and all travel costs to attend an intensive 5-day session in Melbourne, Australia. Selected women candidates from non-eligible economies can still participate in the program but will not receive funding for travel.
The APEC Women’s Business Activator Program is supported by the Australian Government and implemented by the Australian APEC Study Centre and RMIT Activator
