This partnership will open more capital for young companies, improve governance for startups, and support the growth of scalable Sierra Leonean ventures.
RAIN also signed a partnership agreement with the Orange Digital Center through the Orange Foundation, giving founders better access to mentorship, investment-readiness support, and early-stage financing. These agreements are building a coordinated ecosystem that supports entrepreneurs from idea to scale.
“Building a strong innovation ecosystem requires aligned partnerships, patient capital, and deliberate investment in our young entrepreneurs. With supportive government policies and our ongoing digital transformation efforts, Sierra Leone is creating the conditions for innovation to grow, industries to modernise, and entrepreneurs to scale.”- Madam Salima Bah, Minister of Communication, Technology and Innovation
The Ministry will continue working with partners who are investing in the future of Sierra Leone’s innovators. Startups and founders can benefit from these partnerships and access the resources they need as we continue to deliver on our innovation agenda.
