This system helps younger companies through coaching, access to capital (scholarships) and mentorship.
Kickstart is also available in several countries in Africa, as an initiative of the Africa Zone of the AB InBev Group. This system has so far been efficiently applied in South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Tanzania. In Nigeria, this system was launched in 2016 and has had three editions in the Southwest and Southeast. As of 2019, Kickstart has evolved into a nationwide intervention in Nigeria, now open to young people within the country’s six geopolitical zones.
The KickStart program is a competition for budding entrepreneurs and innovators between the ages of 18 and 35 that gives them coaching in business expertise, improvement assistance, mentorship and the opportunity to get away with a grant fund. The last goal of this system is to build a younger prosperous society by making a tradition of entrepreneurship among the many young people, thereby decreasing youth unemployment for natives in the Southwest.
