WE ARE ENTREPRENEURS THAT STAND FOR ALL ENTREPRENEURS TO BE PROFITABLE, SCALABLE AND CAPABLE!

In 2019, SA Innovation Summit took competitions to another level, to open markets further up Africa, to India, to Stuttgart and to Silicon Valley!

You would associate the Summit with the Pitching Den and the Inventors Garage, but in 2019, we are added more competitions for the tech entrepreneur! Africa is earmarked as fertile ground for startup investments. Through our competitions, we provide the space to link you, the entrepreneur – with investors, to connect you to the funding you need to scale your business.

Apart from industry partnerships and investment opportunities, every entry gets exposure to different funding mechanisms, market and linkages. You should know by now that the SA Innovation Summit is a huge networking opportunity! Pitching or showcasing your innovative solution is not only a great experience to distill your value proposition, it is also to test it publicly or privately (only to investors) a space that is provided at the SA Innovation Summit!
