#LaunchedInAfrica is a Social Media Week Lagos initiative for African-led early-stage startups to showcase their products and services which are disrupting industries across the continent.
Now in its 3rd year, we have 7 startups from the beauty, health, advertising education, and media industries represented.
This pitch fest would allow each participant a certain amount of minutes to talk about their business, the solution it provides and the beneficiaries of this initiative. A panel made up of seasoned entrepreneurs, product experts, and investors would compare their scores then pick the winner, first, and second runners up. #LaunchedInAfrica allows innovators and CEOs to mingle with investors, get valuable feedback, and ideas on scaling their startups.
