Call me Crazy - I officially launched a Tech Startup
After 4 months of rigorous learning, unlearning and building, I am super excited and proud to be graduating from the Founder Institute Pre-Seed Accelerator Program (Lagos Virtual Spring 2022). I remember Wande Adalemo (Director, FI Lagos) saying during one of our earlier sessions that only crazy people build startups and I don't disagree at all, especially when you are building in Nigeria.
At Founder Institute, we re-launched Corporate Bestie, as an all-in-one incorporation and regulatory compliance tool that enables founders and entrepreneurs to incorporate, launch and scale their businesses without stress or complex paperwork. Founder Institute is the world's largest pre-seed accelerator program with over 6,000 Graduate companies including Udemy, Esusu and BetaStore, and over 25,000+ mentors.
I'm also honored to have been nominated as President of my graduating cohort VI and look forward to all the amazing things we'll achieve together going forward.
As a company, Corporate Bestie is committed to providing a world where people who identify as Entrepreneurs and Founders - the people who are changing the world with their big ideas get all the support they need to succeed; and this is why I particularly love and enjoyed the FI program.
Founder Institute is for us what we are, to entrepreneurs. The learning sessions were excellently delivered, the mentors gave honest, practicable feedback designed to help refine and drive us forward; and just being in the company of fellow Founders who understand the startup journey and inspire you to keep going was such a blessing.
On this note, I want to say a big thank you to the Founder Institute Lagos team, Directors and Mentors for an amazing program. Congratulations to my fellow founders, I wish us all the best! A special shout out to my team at Corporate Bestie for the relentless work all the way!
Let's keep building!
