Launch of the African Foundation for Entrepreneurship and Economic Development
The African Foundation for Entrepreneurship and Economic Development (AFFEED) is an NGO that ambitions to promote entrepreneurship and the concept of Zero Capital and Export-Driven Entrepreneur (ZCE).
After years of field testing and coaching, the copyrighted concept of Zero Capital Entrepreneurs (ZCE) could be the answer to the high unemployment, need of accelerated economic development, and difficult access to credit and market/contract put forward by most base of the pyramid, minorities, African and African American entrepreneurs or entrepreneurs-to-be.
AFFEED ambitions to promote the concept of ZCE by equipping through its tested training and coaching program, the target population above. The training and coaching programs are focused on how to start a company with zero or low capital and make it export or expansion driven.
The initiative is driven by a team of ZCEs who tested the concept for years under the leadership of Professor Samuel Mathey, Ph.D.
The main activity of the foundation is its ZCE Bus Tour across states and cities and workshop activities at each city stop followed with inclusion of ZCEs in our ZCE database and coaching till business maturity.
All contributions are welcomed in kind, skills, and financial.
Join the army of ZCE for the development of (y)our community and population!
