Sometimes, we experience delays in achieving something, not because we are not worthy, but because we are not ready. Stay focused, and never rush the process. [THREAD] pic.twitter.com/SYlauHDFLv

AYADA Lab is an incubation and acceleration program of the Goethe-Institut and the Institut français in five West African countries: Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria, and Senegal.
AYADA Lab supports young West African startups through mentoring, workshops and networking meetings. At the end of the program, it provides each young entrepreneur with 3,000 Euros as seed-funding.
For this year, AYADA Lab plans to support 25 young West African entrepreneurs.
The goals of the program are to develop viable cultural, creative and social startups in West Africa, and support the structure and the diversification of the entrepreneurial landscape in the field of cultural, creative industries in West Africa.
The program also aims to promote the exchange of regional expertise and train young West African actors from the cultural and creative industries to develop regional and international visions for their businesses.
