What to expect?

Unique learning experiences

You won’t find the knowledge you can get at the Summit online or in the book. It’s an experience that only comes when you get out of your comfort zone. Join and network with your peers, share your victories and failures, and learn new ways of doing things

Networking

The most valuable connections are spontaneous. You may stumble upon your future partner, investor, or colleague during a coffee break or the Closing Cocktail at the event.

Investment opportunities

The event serves as a meeting point for the most promising startups, investors, corporates, and funds from the region. For an entrepreneur looking for the startup funding, it’s a chance to meet the next investor, for a venture capitalist - to find a ‘unicorn’.

Francis A. Obirikorang CEO & Co-founder @ AgroCenta

"Seedstars has played an instrumental role in the growth of AgroCenta from investment to business developments. The company team on several occasions has introduced AgroCenta to partners and stakeholders, some of which we have a working relationship with. By holding our hands and sticking a foot in the door, Seedstars has opened up limitless opportunities for AgroCenta."

Kanik Pascal Co-founder and CEO @ Schoolap

"The Transforming Education Prize we won at the Seedstars Summit 2019 opened for us a door to greatest opportunities. Thanks to this award, we met the President of the Republic of the Congo who recommended our project to the Ministry of Education and this led to a partnership with the Ministry. Also, we were approached by multiple local and international investors."
