Fueling the Future of Female Enterprise: REBDA and Stanbic Bank Launch Nationwide Programme for 400 Women Entrepreneurs

Small businesses are the lifeblood of Uganda's economy, yet many women-led enterprises remain constrained by limited structured training and access to formal finance. REBDA has partnered with Stanbic Bank Uganda Limited to launch the REBDA–Stanbic Gateway Project — a flagship initiative offering fully funded entrepreneurship training, one-on-one coaching, and ongoing mentorship to 400 selected women business owners nationwide.

The cohort targets nano (40%), micro (40%) and small (20%) enterprises, drawn from SACCOs and women's groups across 17 districts in four banking regions:

Northern — 150 entrepreneursLira, Gulu, Arua, Adjumani
Eastern — 150 entrepreneursBusia, Soroti, Mbale, Moroto, Iganga
Central — 50 entrepreneursMukono, Luwero, Kiboga
Western — 50 entrepreneursMasaka, Ishaka, Mbarara, Fort Portal, Mubende

Participants will strengthen record-keeping, market linkages, and readiness for formal financing through banks and VSLAs. Selection includes affirmative action for rural women, refugee entrepreneurs, and persons with disabilities.

Call for applications is open. Women or women-led groups affiliated with SACCOs or community groups, with enterprises active for at least one year, are invited to apply. Forms can be submitted at any Stanbic Bank branch nationwide, addressed to The Training Specialist, REBDA. Only 400 slots are available (plus a 10% reserve list) — early submission is recommended.
