About the Organization
African Entrepreneur Collective (AEC) is a new, innovative solution to systemic unemployment in Africa. While African economies are some of the fastest growing in the world, unemployment is widespread and persistent, causing severe economic, social, and political ramifications. The root cause is that the supply of jobs is outpaced by the increasing demands of a growing workforce. AEC focuses on job creation. Our plan is simple: equip existing entrepreneurs with the tools to succeed and empower them to create jobs for others in their communities. Read more
