Last Wednesday, we together with our partners Standard Chartered Bank Zambia held the official launch of Cohort 2 of the SC Women in Tech programme. The launch was officiated by the Minister of Small and Medium Enterprises Development Mr Elias Mubanga. The website will be open for applications this Wednesday 17th November. If you would like to receive a notification reminder when applications are open, leave us your name and email address in the fill-out form on the official website. Remember, there are five $10,000 equity-free grants available for women-led tech businesses - you don’t want to miss this!
On Friday, we joined Copper Rose Zambia to host the Youth Summit themed “Digital Innovation for Youth in a Post Covid-19 World”. The event had a great turnout of young Zambians from all over the country and it is our hope that the youth in attendance were inspired to pursue digital careers and innovations as the world rebuilds.
Applications for the AICCRA Zambia Accelerator Grant are open until the 5th of December, 2021. Mentorship and grant opportunities are available for climate-smart small or medium-sized agribusiness in Zambia. Visit this website to learn more about this opportunity.
