The winning startup will join the Regional Summit (Seedstars Summit Africa 2019), where it will have the opportunity to be selected to join the 3 months Growth Program Online and the Global Seedstars Summit - with the chance to win up to USD500,000 in equity investment.

The winning startup will be flown to Switzerland for the Global Seedstars Summit 2020 and lodged for the week-long bootcamp, final event, conference and investment forum. It's an invaluable learning, networking and development experience with a value of over $6,000.
