The Ethiopia Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Mapping is a comprehensive tool designed to provide deep insights into the country’s entrepreneurial landscape.

Every entrepreneur operates within an ecosystem that determines the access to talent, finance, and markets that they need to grow their business. 

The Report, prepared by The Aspen Network of Development Entrepreneurs (ANDE) in partnership with Shega Media & Technology, serves as a tool for stakeholders to learn about the organizations providing support to small and growing businesses (SGBs) in a specific city, region, or country.

This mapping identified 140 organizations and nearly 170 distinct resources supporting entrepreneurs across Ethiopia. The online mapping provides a filterable directory of these organizations, categorized by sector, location, and support type. The mapping is complemented by a report analyzing the data and synthesizing key trends in the ecosystem.

In addition, the mapping highlights the services available to entrepreneurs at various stages of development, across different sectors and demographics. It also addresses the challenges and opportunities these organizations face within the ecosystem.
