Fast Forward will support a cohort of startups building technology products for Nigeria’s livestock and allied industries. As part of the program, Fast Forward will select and back up to 10 livestock-tech ventures with capital and company-building support—including app development, growth marketing, PR, strategy, and operations. Fast Forward’s team will work with founders to achieve solid unit economics and at least $20K MRR in six months.
Fast Forward will invest up to $100K in at least three companies that achieve those milestones within the timeframe. In addition, the US and Africa based venture studio will introduce those startups to other (local and regional) investors and global customers through its network.
Fast Forward’s program for Nigerian livestock-tech innovators is supported by a grant from the German development agency Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.
