The program is supported by Telecel Group and fixates on startups offering mobile-tailored solutions. More corporate partners are lining up to engage with partners through pilots and proof of concept projects that open doors to long-term cooperation agreements.
SBC AfriTech program was launched in 2017 and ran its first cohort of 29 startups. It is the first multi-corporate-backed African accelerator programme. During the pandemic, the programme has been running fully online giving startups an opportunity to access library content, one on one mentoring, workshops, and collaborative sessions with entrepreneurs, and invite-only discussion forums with global founders. The accelerator will conclude with an online demo where entrepreneurs will pitch their disruptive solutions to a wide audience of corporate partners, media, industry stakeholders, and investors.
10 startups will be selected from the applicants. Once chosen, they will receive over €500,000 worth of benefits that include Google Cloud Services and AWS credits. SBC will also hand €15,000 cash prizes.
