We are in Kigali for the first week of the timbuktoo Africa HealthTech Accelerator. 40 inspirational startups from 22 countries across the continent. Today is the kickoff and we started with an optional but epic Walk/Run.. Here’s what our Chief Disruptor Philip Kiracofe had to say; “We got to see nature as well as the daily lives of the people who are potential beneficiaries of the critical services being pioneered by the courageous founders in this cohort. We are also focusing on wellness and mental health for the Founders. It’s truly a privilege to be able to engage on such a human level with these entrepreneurs. We hope that all programs, funds and ESO’s are taking time to embrace founder wellness and invite everyone to share your best practices openly with the community.” #founderhealth #acceleratingdisruption
