Chocolate City Group has opened applications for its Founders Fund Africa Creative Economy Accelerator Programme, which supports early-stage African creative startups. Multiple reports say the initiative is backed by a total funding pool of $1 million and is designed to help eligible founders with both grants and opportunities to connect with potential investors.
According to the coverage, the program provides funding in the range of $20,000 to $50,000 per startup, targeting companies working within Africa’s creative economy. The application window is described as currently open, with interested founders directed to use the program’s application portal to submit their entries.
While both outlets emphasize the accelerator’s funding and startup support goals, neither provides additional details in the shared text about specific eligibility requirements, selection criteria, or deadlines. The main points highlighted across sources are that applications have started, the program is for creative startups, and it includes grants totaling $1 million with potential investor connection benefits.
