Women-led, tech-based and tech-enabled businesses in Zambia have been invited to apply for the Women in Tech accelerator programme, implemented by BongoHive Innovations, which offers training, mentorship and funding.
The three-month Women in Tech Zambia programme combines world-class training, strategic mentorship, and equity-free funding to help female entrepreneurs grow their startups and scale sustainable solutions aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Selected startups will receive three months worth of business incubation, professional mentorship, technical and business support. They will also create a personalised milestone development plan towards investment readiness, and get access to financial analysis, networking opportunities, and media exposure.
The programme also includes an equity-free grant of US$10,000, awarded to five selected businesses to scale their solutions, as well as six months of targeted post-programme support designed to help startups scale operations and deepen market reach.
Applications are open here until May 28.
