Startups
Entrepreneurs & Founders
Most founders cannot implement their business ideas quickly and sustainably enough. Resources are limited and they often lack start-up experience, methodological knowledge and a strong implementation team
Investors
Angels & Powerbanks
Most investors in East Africa enter into business opportunities with high risk and limited collateral. They often lack an experienced team, a proven approach, and a solid infrastructure they can rely on.
Enterprises
