A new report compiled by
the CEOWORLD magazine has found Ghana is the 7th best African country out of 10
to become an entrepreneur.
The Entrepreneurship Index evaluates a total of
100 economies based on a wide range of factors to create an overall “best
countries for entrepreneurship” index, including innovation, competitiveness,
infrastructure, labour skills, access to capital, and openness for business.
According to the report, South
Africa tops the local ranking for the best African countries to be an
entrepreneur. With a highly-skilled workforce, competitiveness, and openness for
business, the country has the second-largest economy in Africa, after Nigeria,
and is also unarguably the most industrialised nation in sub-Saharan Africa.
South Africa placed 48th out of
the 100 countries accessed globally with Ghana placing 77th.
Here are the top 10 most entrepreneurial countries in Africa
according to CEOWORLD magazine Entrepreneurship Index, 2021.
