Twenty African female-founded tech startups have been selected for the fourth edition of The Future is Female Mentorship Programme, a PR and communications mentorship programme dedicated exclusively to African female tech founders. Launched on Africa Day in 2020, by the African tech focused PR agency C. Moore Media International PR, which has since been acquired by global agency Allison+Partners, The Future is Female Mentorship Programme is this year supported by Google for Startups Accelerator: Women Founders Africa Programme, Salesforce Ventures Impact Fund, and F6S. The mentorship programme is complementary and supports the underserved market of African women. Once the 20 finalists have completed the Future is Female Mentorship Programme, they will own insights into the fundamentals of PR and communications for early-stage tech startups. The programme is delivered virtually, and the mentees are invited to participate in masterclasses and sessions customised to the specific needs of their sector and business.
