Words cannot be enough to explain How Startup Reseau has helped me as a tech entrepreneur. The knowledge and insight I got through the Founders' Development Bootcamp has helped not only me but also the people around me will indirectly be impacted through me. It has built my confidence and changed the way I look at things through design thinking. Now I believe if I can dream of anything I can achieve it. Most of all, I love the passion that the Startup Reseau team has towards impacting tech entrepreneurs in Africa. It's quite a great leadership lesson to me and everyone who dreams of building and leading a company.
