MEST Africa Programme
Offered by MEST Africa
MEST Africa offers a rare format: a full year of technology entrepreneurship training, full-time and fully funded, followed by possible seed investment of up to $100,000.
Participants, called Entrepreneurs in Training, follow a curriculum covering software development, business management and communication, then form teams and pitch at the end of the programme. Selected teams join MEST incubators in Accra, Lagos, Nairobi, Cape Town or Abidjan.
The commitment asked is substantial: a full year, on site. This is the programme to consider if you want to change professional direction rather than finance a business already trading.
