A Decade of Learnings on Gender-Lens Acceleration: Case Studies from Asia
YEAR:

Summary

The concept of gender-lens acceleration has taken hold in recent years, with various toolkits outlining how to be more gender inclusive at every step of the acceleration process, from selection to programming and alumni support. However, it is not well understood how effective these strategies have been in producing more equitable outcomes for women. This report aims to fill that information gap by synthesizing the research on accelerating women-led ventures and exploring case studies of three accelerator programs in Asia that have outsized impacts for such ventures.
