Small businesses across Africa have to plan for climate shocks as a normal part of doing business, not as rare events. Heatwaves, floods, supply disruptions and power cuts all threaten their ability to operate and stay profitable. But digital advancement offers practical ways to respond, covering from mobile connectivity and online transactions, to data-backed planning, remote monitoring and early warning systems.

Join this DigiBiz Webinar to explore how digital practices can strengthen climate resilience for entrepreneurs, ecosystem builders and support organisations across the continent.
