e27 Features Go Digital ASEAN’s Impact on Leveling the Digital Playing Field

e27, Asia’s largest Tech media platform, highlights the success of the Foundation’s Google.org supported Go Digital ASEAN program in leveling the digital playing field for women entrepreneurs.

While the digital economy teems with potential, women entrepreneurs must possess the skills to fully harness those opportunities for business growth. This is the driving force behind impactful initiatives like The Asia Foundation’s Go Digital ASEAN program, supported by Google’s philanthropy Google.org, in training over 140,000 entrepreneurs to date, with 60 per cent of women from underserved communities.

It recognises that digital literacy isn’t one-size-fits-all. By offering tailored training in business, finance, marketing, cybersecurity, and sustainability, women at all stages of their entrepreneurial journey gain the tools for sustained growth.

Go Digital ASEAN is an initiative under the Future Skills Alliance, a broad coalition of partners from both the public and private sectors working together to deliver future skills at scale to the region’s most marginalized.
