MISSION
To reduce poverty by supporting entrepreneurship through business incubation, learning by doing and community development.
We facilitate a “learning by doing” program seeking to develop job creators in Africa. Our solution brings an integrated approach to local communities. They lead in decision-making by defining solutions to their problems. This fosters local ownership of the projects. Further, we ensure that the sharing of knowledge enables them to train others in new skills.
