Applications are now being accepted for the second batch of the FAST accelerator, which was developed by Microsoft in collaboration with Flapmax to enhance and expand Africa’s digital economy.

FAST Accelerator 2023 promises to provide company founders looking to scale quickly and sustainably with a “transformative experience” by building on the success of the first program.

In order to enable startup businesses headquartered in Africa and emerging markets to provide sustainable solutions, the program combines company development, technology integration, finance opportunities, and community building. Additionally, it offers mentorship opportunities and specialized venture finance.

According to Dave Ojika, CEO of Flapmax, “FAST Accelerator represents our commitment to supporting ambitious entrepreneurs who are driving sustainable innovation across the continent of Africa and emerging markets, through this comprehensive program, we are dedicated to connecting startup founders with a global community, industry-leading technology, and the essential startup funding necessary to forge the path towards local, sustainable, and AI-powered technological solutions of the future. Together, we unite in building a brighter future for Africa and the world, fueled by the transformative power of technology and innovation.”

For five weeks, ten startups will get access to Flapmax’s thriving ecosystem of over 600 corporate partners in Silicon Valley. This includes access to industry experts, possible investors, and global partners.

The application deadline is September 8.
