In March, Techcityng reported that Google was bringing the Launchpad Accelerator to Africa, aimed at assisting startups in Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Algeria, Egypt, Ghana, Morocco, Tanzania, Tunisia, and Uganda in leveraging Google’s latest technologies to scale their businesses through mentoring.

In line with the commitment Google CEO Sundar Pichai made to support African entrepreneurs earlier this year, we’re excited to announce Google Developers Launchpad Africa, a new hands-on comprehensive mentorship program tailored exclusively to startups based in Africa.

Building on the success of Google’s global Launchpad Accelerator programme, this initiative will operate from a new Google Launchpad Space in Lagos (the first onsite location for the programme outside the US).

It will provide African startups with over $3-million in equity-free support, working space, and access to expert advisers from Google, Silicon Valley, and Africa over the next three years. Participants will also receive travel and Public Relations support during the three-month programme.\\
