The Strategic Founder Program

The Strategic Founder is an Entrepreneurship Talent Curator that backs brave African startup founders to solve difficult problems and create great companies using a definite view of the future, a deep understanding of how the world works, long-term thinking, and bias for action.

Our program involves helping ambitious founders get their startup ideas validated, find their early customers,  launch their companies, find their early team members, connect with investors, and network with other ambitious entrepreneurs for lifelong company-building.

We do all of that because, starting and succeeding with things, especially things of tremendous value, like startups, is daunting. And it is even more daunting when you want to get startups to succeed and thrive  in Africa.

Whether you are a would-be founder, a first-time founder, or a tenth-time founder, our program will prepare and help you to successfully navigate the hard and fearsome terrain of the startup world, especially in the African context.

If you are daring and ambitious, if you are solving a difficult and valuable problem with your startup, then you are the kind of founders we are looking to work with.
