Ghana’s Sesi Technologies has been selected for Halcyon’s Climate Resilience & Food Security Africa Accelerator. The highly competitive accelerator program supports innovators building solutions for food systems and climate challenges across the continent.

Sesi Technologies joins a cohort of 15 other African founders drawn from Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia.

“African founders are often innovating without broader institutional support from a startup ecosystem,” said Mercy Erhiawarien, Senior Manager of Programs at Halcyon. “Our programming is intended to help founders scale their ventures while also creating a community of support for networking and sharing best practices.”

Over the next four months, the founders will receive training in product-market fit, capital strategy, and leadership. The founders will also participate in an in-person introductory residency in Accra, followed by five days of virtual programming and a final in-person residency in Nairobi.
