Salcab Incubation Program- Concludes
The Salcab Start up Series incubation started on July 8th, 2019 . According to Salcab, “The SALCAB Start-up series stems from our belief in entrepreneurship and innovation. We have therefore designed a platform to sell the human capital of Sierra Leone and prove to the world that Sierra Leone is more than just wars, famine and poverty or that business in Sierra Leone only revolves around the buying and selling of natural resources.
The start-up series will be a launch pad for innovators and entrepreneurs, provide seed capital for cohorts, coaching and mentoring programs, incubation and business model development, and the right network environment to drive ideation to scalability”.
