Dela

Recorded live at Africa Tech Summit Nairobi, this episode features Stanley Mukasa, Associate Director of Entrepreneurship at Carnegie Mellon University Africa.

CMU Africa is helping startups bridge the gap between innovative ideas and sustainable businesses through its incubation programmes, mentorship, funding and access to technical talent. In this conversation,

Stanley shares how the university supports deep tech founders navigating long development cycles, limited access to capital and the challenge of turning research-driven innovation into market-ready products.

The discussion also explores the importance of patient capital, building traction before fundraising, supporting underserved communities, and the emerging opportunities shaping Africa’s startup ecosystem - from fintech to clean energy.
