Capacity is Currency: Why Business Skills Matter as Much as Capital

How building core capabilities can unlock growth, resilience, and long-term success for African businesses.

African entrepreneurs are ambitious, resilient, and visionary. But many are thrown into business without formal training or structured support. That’s why, at Enterprise Group Africa, we focus on capacity building as a core investment in Africa’s future.

Whether it’s helping agribusinesses build better supply chains, or supporting digital startups to design HR systems, we equip SMEs with the leadership, operations, and growth skills they need to scale.

We’ve learned that when entrepreneurs understand how to grow, they build businesses that not only survive — but create jobs, attract capital, and spark lasting impact.
