We are a social impact organization with an emerging world focus helping cities build their startup ecosystems and creating opportunities for growth for startups.
We are a community of startups with a mission of building entrepreneurial ecosystems in emerging regions of the world. In our part of the world, besides Gov. support and money, you need a diverse community, investors ready to bet on early stage solutions and corporates willing to do business with startups.
We help city, provincial and country governments put together all these three pieces of the puzzle while taking lessons from Silicon Valley and, more crucially, other regions and countries of the emerging world that have successfully made the transition.
Along the journey, by collaborating with Corporates and Investors, we create emerging world business and investment opportunities for startups, worldwide. We believe, attracting global talent and adding to the diversity pool is an essential element of building a vibrant ecosystem.
A quick word about our logo:
We call it the Cyber-Hyena. Although not striking in its looks, the hyena is the spunkiest, scrappiest and the most tenacious of the animals of the wild. Exactly the qualities that our community possesses.
