Employment & Entrepreneurship: Creating Opportunities for All

Unemployment is one of our country’s big challenges. While the formal job sector remains limited,
entrepreneurship has emerged as a key driver of economic growth. Across Africa, small and
medium enterprises (SMEs) create 80% of employment, but many face challenges in funding,
market access, and business development support.
This dialogue will explore job creation strategies and entrepreneurial growth. We’ll discuss how to
foster innovation, expand digital skills, and improve access to finance for startups. With Gabon’s
growing digital economy and the rise of fintech, agribusiness, and creative industries, how can we
empower entrepreneurs and create sustainable employment opportunities?
Join us as we tackle key questions: How can Gabon’s government, private sector, and citizens
work together to create more jobs? What support systems are needed to help startups and small
businesses succeed?
Your insights will help shape a future where employment and entrepreneurship are pillars of
economic progress!
