Experts say the country stands at a critical turning point in strengthening its entrepreneurial ecosystem. Consultant Cofie urged a balanced approach, warning that the bill must go beyond policy promises. "Ghana must ensure the Startup Bill is not just a policy on paper but a fully functional system with clear timelines, enforcement mechanisms, and accountability structures," she said.

Ghana already ranks third in Africa for female-led ventures, according to the Mastercard Index of Women Entrepreneurs. The bill is expected to further boost women's participation in the tech space, expanding inclusive growth in the sector. | | | |
