Object: Launch of the African Rethink Awards Online Platform

Dear Partner,
Dear Friend,
As planned, we are launching the online platform dedicated to the young entrepreneurs’ registration
to the African Rethink Awards (A.R.A.).
From October 10th onwards, a jury will proceed to the selection of the 100 most innovative and
effective startups, addressing the issues related to the economic development of the African
continent.
These 100 young entrepreneurs will be invited to Paris to present their projects during the LAB.
Each afternoon, from December 2nd to December 11th, the audience will witness the presentations of
these projects, and meetings with professionals of the concerned sectors of activity will be held.
In this regard, three Prizes will award the laureates, from Africa or from the African diaspora, during
the closing session of the LAB – Land of African Business, on Friday, December 11th.
To help us make this unique and original event a success, we invite you to share information on your
networks to mobilize the most ambitious, innovative and effective projects.
Please find attached the presentation file of the African Rethink Awards, and below the link to the
registration platform of the A.R.A.:
