At the Africa Soft Power Summit 2026, industry leaders from sectors including film, telecommunications, fashion, and retail emphasized that the challenges facing Africa's female economy stem from systemic design issues rather than a lack of visibility. They argued that the contributions of women in these sectors are significantly undervalued and often not accurately represented in economic metrics. The discussions highlighted the need for structural changes to better support and recognize the potential of female entrepreneurs and professionals across the continent. This call for action aims to enhance the economic impact of women and promote equitable growth in Africa's diverse markets.
