Ten companies, five of which are from Africa, have been selected for Startup Boost, a global programme for social impact startups run by Sweden-based tech consulting company tretton37. Startup Boost, introduced in the latter part of 2023, offers pro bono help for startups that are looking to make an impact and challenge the world. Almost 50 applicants were selected for the programme, with 10 now picked – five from Africa. The selected startups will be provided free support in areas such as programming, design, and strategy, based around their specific needs. We’re excited to support the ten startups that were chosen and together make a positive impact in the world,” said Deniz Yildirim, CEO of tretton37.
