The Aurora Tech Award × Foundry for HER Online Bootcamp has been created to change this reality. Running from October 15–17, 2025, the program will select 120 early-stage Nigerian women founders for three days of targeted training and mentorship.

"Never take your eyes off the cash flow because it's the lifeblood of business."

—Sir Richard Branson, business magnate, investor, author and philanthropist  

Small business owners should pay close attention to their cash flow because it is the lifeblood of their business.

Cash flow is the money that comes in and goes out of business. It is important to have a positive cash flow so that the business can pay its bills and invest in its growth.
