### FAQs

Here are our most frequently asked questions.

There are a lot of resilience programs around, how are you different and how can you add value?

‎Our hands-on experience building and investing in startups from emerging markets gives us our edge. The majority of the theory being taught has been tried in the field. Our regional/global vision and network adds an element most programs cannot offer.

The Resilience Program is designed to support startups in crisis management and providing them with the survival framework, access to extensive partner and investor network.

Can you really have results doing this virtually?

Yes, so far we have achieved excellent results as measured by NPS and follow on funding. In fact having the founders close to their team and their customers is beneficial at this stage of a startup.

Can we get the batch of startups in to our corporate headquarters?

‎Yes, this is an additional element we can customise for you. For example we could do the opening bootcamp or customised week in your HQ to facilitate the collaboration.

Are you able to source startups for my sector/region to attend a program?

Yes, our network covers all digital sectors in over 80 emerging market ecosystems and we’re confident we can source for all mandates.

Can you manage the setup of an investment vehicle, due diligence etc.?

We can do this at an extra cost. Due diligence for the first phase of investment is already covered by us. For follow-on investment management, we can structure specific deals.

# Interested in launching a program for entrepreneurs?

Having the biggest positive impact in emerging markets is our mission and purpose as a company.
