Fledge

Fledge is a global network of impact accelerators, each providing an intense program of entrepreneurial education and mentorship, guiding entrepreneurs through the complex path from idea to revenues and profits.

For each session, we seek the most impactful startups from various parts of the world.  We have invested in dozens of African startups to-date, and with a partner run an annual week-long program in Nairobi.  Fledge graduates include companies like BURN Manufacturing, East Africa Fruit, OBRI Africa, Geossy, Cowtribe, Agromyx, Swahili Honey, Kalahari Honey, Ziweto Enterprise, Obamastove, Agro Supply, Goldenpot, and more, who combined have raised tens of millions of dollars of investments, collectively earn tens of millions of dollars in revenues, and which are improving the lives of millions of Africans.

Each invitee receives $10,000+ in cash (the + as more is available) and is invited to an intense in-person training followed by online follow-up, and surrounded by a flood of experienced mentors and impact investors.
