Business Gems is a thriving community for women building businesses in Botswana.
What started in 2021 as a small Facebook group has grown into so much more: an active online community, WhatsApp group, email list, monthly meetups, workshops, events, and practical resources.
It is a space where women connect, ask questions, share advice, learn from one another, and build relationships that support real business growth.
Through Business Gems, women have found new confidence, new ideas, new opportunities, and the reassurance that they are not building alone.
