Key takeaway for entrepreneurs
Algeria’s digital economy offers opportunities for women-led startups, but formalization remains a hurdle. Infrastructure projects like the Algiers Metro expansion signal growing urban mobility, while trade agreements with Cameroon and Congo provide export avenues for agri-food businesses. Investors should monitor policy shifts in women’s rights and counter-terrorism laws, which impact labor market dynamics and legal frameworks.
