Our Role
Expanding the frontiers of knowledge and wealth
SAFPRENEURSHIP/ AFRICAPRENEURSHIP
With the worst infant mortality and malnutrition rates in the world, Africa is regarded as the poorest continent on earth.
Although there are several important factors contributing to poverty in Africa, the absence of a strong capitalism is the main factor. If the populace understood the value of private wealth ownership, perhaps the poverty rate would not be as high.
In order to completely eradicate poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa through entrepreneurship, the Stephen Akintayo Foundation has launched a number of initiatives.
We firmly think that business is the key to ending poverty in Africa. So, we built a system that encourages and recognises outstanding business talent in Sub-Saharan Africa as we share the vision of the sustainable development goal of the United Nations. So this is a call to action to all and for all.
