Ecosystem Accelerator Innovation Fund 2018
Fostering partnerships between mobile operators and start-ups
The GSMA Ecosystem Accelerator Innovation Fund provides selected start-ups in Africa and Asia Pacific with equity-free funding, technical assistance, and the opportunity to partner with mobile operators in their markets to help scale their products and services into sustainable businesses with positive socio-economic impact.
Round 3 of the Ecosystem Accelerator Innovation Fund opened 12 March 2018 and all pitches are due by 15 April 2018 at 11.59pm GMT.
For the third round, the Fund will be supporting start-ups willing to work with mobile operators. The fund is sector-agnostic and open to post-revenue start-ups using mobile to solve local challenges in Asia-Pacific and Africa.
