African startups are invited to apply for the Future of Capitalism competition, offering founders the opportunity to accelerate their startups with an investment of up to US$1 million. This global startup competition seeks innovative technologies that can transform business operations and help companies work smarter.
The competition organizers emphasize the wide range of eligible technologies, saying, “If your technology can transform how businesses operate – from improving productivity, security, logistics, or sustainability to streamlining financial processes and enhancing customer experience, or perhaps something else – then this is the competition for you.” They are particularly interested in solutions that can have a profound impact on various aspects of business efficiency and effectiveness.
Eight shortlisted finalists will be invited to London, where they will have the chance to pitch their innovations in front of a prestigious panel of judges. This panel will include tech investment professionals, experienced entrepreneurs, and angel investors. This presents a unique opportunity for startups to gain visibility, receive valuable feedback, and potentially secure significant investments to propel their ventures forward.
Participating in the Future of Capitalism competition not only offers a chance for substantial financial backing but also provides a platform for startups to showcase their groundbreaking ideas on a global stage. It is an invaluable opportunity for African startups looking to make a significant impact in the business world.
