TechTribe Accelerator applications close 24 November 2019
Entrepreneurs that are focused on addressing the challenges highlighted by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (poverty, education, healthcare, gender equality, food security, financial inclusion, energy, water, and other climate action, etc), have an important role to play in manifesting more equitable and resilient societies.
The TechTribe Accelerator’s multifaceted approach aims to address some of these challenges. It has designed a set of investment readiness modules, which take the entrepreneur through a structured seven-month process that builds out each component of their business’s investment case. The modules are delivered via an online learning management system that is accessible to entrepreneurs irrespective of geography; as long as they have access to a reliable internet connection. TTA will also offer virtual mentorship to select entrepreneurs, by drawing on its multi-country network of expert mentors. Mentors will provide guidance and feedback as the entrepreneur completes each module. This infuses an irreplaceable human element to the acceleration journey.
In January 2020, at least 100 ventures will begin the seven-month online accelerator; 30 of these will be awarded virtual mentorships. The TTA’s first cohort will include ventures from seven SADC countries.
