To promote industrialization, develop an efficient start-up ecosystem, and create exponential growth opportunities through innovative partnerships to contribute to job creation in Africa.
After an engagement in consulting firms like Deloitte, I founded my first company exporting secondhand cars from Japan to Africa through its online commerce. After that, I founded And Africa.
Through an understanding process that I visited over 10 African countries, I reached out to the belief below.
“The future of Africa will be taking shape by youth in Africa.”
The youth population is rapidly increasing in Africa.
On the other hand, the unemployment rate is still high, in particular among youth.
The lack of industry is an essential issue in that sense.
Industrialization by “startups” that aim to grow rapidly by African youth.
That is the most valuable mission that I should contribute to my belief.
With such intention, I’ve been working on the mission.
