During these residencies, entrepreneurs will be focused on business strategy, growth, marketing, finance and distribution. They will also receive a host of on and offline training as well as an opportunity to pitch their business to national and international investors.
Fresh Direct’s founder and 2016 class winner, Angel Adelaja, said "This was like a condensed Masters Program. I am so different now and our company is thinking and strategizing differently.”
This 2017 SLA Accelerator is run in partnership with the Work in Progress! Alliance - a consortium of Oxfam, Butterfly Works and VC4A. The Kaduna Agribusiness cohort is sponsored by OCP.
