The Empower Africa Business Platform is Now Live !!!
This initiative aims to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and practical experience in business management, operations, and investment.
“We are proud to launch the JOIN program to develop a new generation of operator-investors in Africa,” said Tebogo Masekwameng, a principal at Secha Capital.
The program leverages the expertise of Secha’s network of investors, entrepreneurs, and operators to provide participants with real-world skills needed to excel in the green and tech-driven African economy.
JOIN targets individuals seeking careers that combine hands-on business experience with investment knowledge.
Secha Capital is a black, female-founded growth equity firm focused on Southern African companies transitioning towards a sustainable, technology-enabled future.
Applications for the inaugural JOIN cohort, starting in June 2024, are now open.
