We're incredibly excited to announce what's next for OxFounders Global: our Africa Tour! We're incredibly excited to be a part of three incredible startup ecosystems, Nigeria, Kenya, and South Africa, and give a platform to some of these countries' most talented startup founders.
Across 4 events, we are bringing together 40 startups and countless investors, founders, accelerators, diplomats, and journalists for a dazzling showcase of some of the continent's fastest-growing startup hubs. Our pitching startups will predominantly focus on the area of impact, which includes companies that create social, economic, or environmental impact.
