Venture for Africa, renowned as a talent community and a premier source for top tech startup hires in Africa, is now accepting applications for its latest bootcamp program. This initiative by Venture for Africa aims to facilitate the transition of exceptional global talent into roles within the African tech startup ecosystem. The flagship three-month fellowship offers participants a unique opportunity to gain exposure to local market nuances, receive expert-led training tailored to key roles, and connect with leading startups actively seeking new hires.

By collaborating with startups, Venture for Africa co-creates comprehensive programs that include actionable projects for fellows, targeted workshops in specific areas, and expedited interview processes for dream roles upon completion of the program's learning activities.

The Go-To-Market Bootcamp, the latest addition to the expanding VFA Bootcamp Series, follows the successful launch of the Fintech Product Management program, which is currently in its second cohort.

Over the course of ten weeks, the Go-To-Market Bootcamp aims to transform participants into valuable growth assets, equipping them with in-depth knowledge of core functions and essential skills within the revenue side of the business. The program covers a wide range of topics, including market and customer research, competitive analysis, brand messaging, product/service pricing, launch marketing strategies, partnership building, sales pipeline development, and much more. Participants will have the opportunity to apply cross-disciplinary learning to their specific areas of expertise.

Each week, participants will attend online masterclasses led by seasoned industry experts relevant to the weekly topic. They will also be assigned readings, practical assignments, and real-world fieldwork to enhance their understanding and application of the go-to-market skills. The program will provide engaging content, practical use cases, and stimulating deliverables to sharpen the necessary skills for success in go-to-market strategies.
