A pre-selection phase is foreseen: in each of the 34 African countries a jury from a variety of business sectors will be set-up to evaluate the innovativeness, boldness and originality of the projects, along with their social and economic impact, feasibility, sustainability and potential in terms of growth, development and employment. Ten finalists will then be selected and invited to present their projects to the jury.
The jury will select up to three winners offering them individual coaching and at the end of this period they will also receive financial support for their projects.
The deadline to apply is the 31st of January 2016.
