For Future Founders: Earn Equity While Building Africa’s Infrastructure

As an Africa Builder Fellow, you’re not joining a company — you’re accelerating your path to becoming a founder. Earn significant equity in multiple ventures while gaining the operational experience most founders learn through expensive failures.

The “Founder Accelerator” Model

What Fellows Actually Get:

  1. Founder Equity (0.5–3%) in real companies
  2. Operational playbook for scaling in African markets
  3. Investor network access for future fundraising
  4. Co-founder relationships with other high-potential builders
  5. Studio credibility for future ventures

Our Africa Builder Fellowship is Africa’s premier founder accelerator, where the most promising talent earn their stripes through building real companies with real ownership.

We Select the Top 1% of Applicants Who Demonstrate:

  • Founder mindset (not employee mentality)
  • Proven execution ability (not just credentials)
  • Long-term vision for Africa
  • Willingness to earn equity through contribution

This is not: an employee–employer relationship
