The Windhoek Entrepreneurship Ecosystem
This resource includes two valuable assets: 1. An Overview of the Windhoek Entrepreneurship Ecosystem, 2. An Overview of the Windhoek Startup Ecosystem by Category and Startup Development Stage.

It’s a tangible support system at your fingertips. The insights primarily rely on the perspectives of local ecosystem actors and startups gathered during research fieldwork in 2021-2022.
