Our Mission
THE PROBLEM: Startups and SMEs in Sierra Leone are mostly not investment ready, primarily due to poor financial management and inability to demonstrate the viability of their Business Models.
- For over a decade, we’ve supported the growth of more than 2,900 entrepreneurs and businesses in Sierra Leone (52% female, 48% male), channeling over $2.9 million in debt, equity, and grant funding.
- We have also incubated and accelerated at least three businesses that each went on to generate more than $500,000 in annual revenue.
