Last week Friday, we wrapped up the sprint week for the Thrive Investor Readiness programme which we are running in partnership with Village Capital and Prospero Zambia. The 9 participating ventures were taken through a series of workshops where they learnt how to scale their businesses, get investment ready and they also connected with mentors, investors and advisors. The programme will run for the next 3 months and it will be concluded by an Investor Summit which will take place in March.
Have a great week, and stay safe. |
