According to the Regional Director for FI Africa, Chukwuemeka Fred Agbata Jnr.,
Despite the sometimes difficult challenges, founders on the African continent continue to show resilience while building products that tackle some of the most pressing issues confronting Africans. Founder Institute has continued to evolve as a formidable partner in helping to build African companies for the future. Today, we have nearly 200 graduate companies from FI Africa accelerators.
Therefore, as a way of showcasing some of the newest, most amazing companies coming out of FI Africa, we are hosting a global session to showcase some of these companies alongside the Directors of various cities that helped make this a reality. Join us for an intriguing session and see how founders are building against all odds.
You're invited to join us as we connect with the founders, investors, and entrepreneurs interested in building the next generation of businesses out of Africa. Grab a seat here.
Graduates of the Founder Institute are creating some of the world's fastest growing startups, having raised over $1.85BN in funding, and building products people love across over 200 cities worldwide.
