Les modalités d’animation et apports du réseau d’affaires chez les mampreneurs : le cas de la Côte d’Ivoire

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The academic world is paying particular attention to the economic and social issues associated with female entrepreneurship. This is the case in Africa, where the figure of the woman is a pillar of development, and where we have seen the creation of mampreneurs networks in recent years. The objective of this article is to bring to light the modalities of business network support for mampreneurs, as well as their contributions, in the African context. It is based on a case study of a network of 75 mampreneurs established in Côte d’Ivoire. Our results show that the network favors psychological, professional and family support, whose animation modalities are affective, cognitive and conative. We also identified moral, identity, transgenerational and therapeutic benefits.
