Our Solution
Our solution for the gender gap is to introduce innovative boot camps for women
We will be working with women entrepreneurs who are already in business and/or planning to launch a business focusing on the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics. We will work with women who have a business in Fintech, Arttech, and Edutech themes. Our Accelerate women in STEAM which will have a three-day residential boot camp will train women in the STEAM field to increase their understanding of the Fin-Tech, Edu-Tech, and Art-Tech and boost and strengthen their skills to be successful within the industry and even to tap cross border business via professional network. At the end of the Boot camp, the participants will be able to pitch their business or STEAM business models to the donors, angel investors, and those seeking financial support, and we will introduce them to grant, loan providers, and investors. For Example, Palladium Catalyst SME finance support via DFCC bank. The main objective of this Boot camp is to accelerate women entrepreneurs in STEAM. Girls and women play a pivotal role in the economy of the country.
