A Snapshot of Entrepreneurship and Procurement

The Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) study shows that South Africa’s early stageentrepreneurial and established business activity is lower than the average of peereconomies.Womenmakeup36%ofallentrepreneursbutonly21.1%ofemployersbecause50%oftheirbusinessesaresmall,one-personretailbusinesses.Thesestatisticssuggestthatinanenvironmentwherejobsarescarce,thereisadistinctopportunitytogrowtheeconomyand supportwomenbyencouragingentrepreneurship. Finally, given that theaverageageforwomenentrepreneursinSouthAfricais41,youngwomen,ademographicthathasfewemploymentopportunities,findthemselvestobeparticularlyeconomicallyvulnerable.

Globally, public procurement offers a unique vehicle to empower women by advancingtheirsocioeconomicrightsandtopromoteinclusiveeconomicgrowth.Itisestimatedthatpublicprocurementaccountstoabout10-15%ofgrossdomesticproduct(GDP)indevelopedcountriesandover30%ofGDP indevelopingcountries. In the2013/14financialyear theSouth Africa public sector spent R500 billion on goods and services and on constructionworksenablingdeliveryofservicestothecountry’sresidents.Thesesupportedandenabledthedeliveryofservicestothecountry’sresidents.However,theparticipationandbenefitofwomeninglobalprocurementisestimatedtoonlyapproximately1%ofpublicprocurementspends.WomenOwnedBusinessrepresentsaminisculepercentageofbeneficiariesofpublicprocurement which potentially inhibit nation’s growth, productivity and the job creationprospects.

Despite the best policy intentions, as articulated in the country’s Constitution Section217(2)andother legislationandpolicy frameworks, suchas thePreferentialProcurementPolicyFrameworkAct(PPPFA)whichmakesprovisionsfortheuseofpublicprocurementasameansofdevelopmentandtransformation,thescaleofprogressbeingmadeorwomenespecially,remainslimited.Thegovernmenthas,throughthePreferentialProcurementPolicyFrameworkActof2000,establishedquotasforprocurementfromwomen,butitisdifficulttomeasuretheextenttowhichthissupportisbeingtakenupbyentrepreneurs.A2012studyrevealedthatwomenownedbusinesseswererecipientsof16.56billionandingovernmentprocurement,accountingfor9%ofthetotalprocurementoftheresearchsample.Womenstill

policy been?2. Kenya has implemented a procument assisted development programme now has this

impacted on women and what lessons can be shared.3. How has South African business benefited from the procument and what should

Questions to be addressed by the session1. There are significant barriers to a renewable powered future such as: an inefficient and

under-financed power sector, tariffs and distorted pricing in energy resources, lack of awareness of renewable energy potentials and opportunities. How can the South Africa government, private sector and international community best join hands in supporting South Africa harness its tremendous renewable energy resources and advancing the country’s vision to promote green investment?

2. Building on the renewable energy sector by South African has been a success story in addressing increasing demand of energy with clean, indigenous, cost-effective power options. What are the challenges and opportunities to achieve the targets renewables 17 000 MW by 2030? To what extent can renewable energy technologies support and contribute to the African energy demand and in the process address challenges of security of supply, energy access while promoting sustainable economic growth and the inclusion of women in the growing renewable energy sector?

3. Which of the renewable energy technologies are widely deployed in South Africa and how can women participate in the IPP programme?

Questions to be addressed by the session1. What are easy, low cost options for mitigation finance and how can we avoid crowding

out the private sector? 2. There are many options available for tailoring the financial mechanisms to national

policy goals to meet energy needs. What are some which you consider most important and have been implemented by your organisation?

3. What may be effective measures for scaling up investment in the energy sector in general and in particular by designated groups? What are the benefits and draw-backs of such mechanisms?
