@africamanager @DavidMunnichIP @BuildingMrkets 🔴 Maryanne Ochola, Regional Managing Director of @EndeavorKenya, notes that a small share of firms drives most job creation, yet support systems largely target others. She stresses that growth takes time, and that founders act as multipliers across the ecosystem.

🔴 Elizabeth Brown, Executive Director of @BuildingMrkets, points out that the main constraint for firm growth is market access, as many remain invisible to buyers. She emphasizes that training and finance without contracts are insufficient, stressing the role of #data and visibility.
