About Atdf

The African Technology Development Forum combines the dissemination of new and relevant knowledge for African entrepreneurs with concrete application on the ground. It gained much experience in investing in local entrepreneurs and coaching newly established businesses nurturing them to success. We have learned lessons from the ATDF incubator.

This valuable knowledge forms the basis of the e-mentoring platform on our ATDF website. The matchmaking platform for entrepreneurs brings together captains of industry, practitioners, experts worldwide and links them with African entrepreneurs that seek to improve their maagement skills, the quality of their products and services.
