Programme X is arranged for 150 early-stage startups from Namibia. The main outcome of the program is to help founders to create a working MVP, and kickoff their entrepreneurial journey.

Startup Namibia aims to contribute to the country's economic growth by supporting early-stage startups and accelerating innovations. Basecamp is the StartUp Namibia Incubation and Acceleration Centre where Programme X will be hosted in Windhoek, Namibia (Now Online due to COVID-19). Programme X focuses on developing entrepreneurial, mindset, strategic thinking and leadership. It supports Namibian founders to turn their ideas into viable businesses and create solutions for their fellow countrymen.

HOW YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE AS A MENTOR

We are looking for mentors to lend a hand for these 150 ambitious startups. With 2 hours of your time and expertise, startups increase their chances to flourish - and change lives.

HOW YOU CAN PARTICIPATE

Startups from Namibia can apply to Programme X. We will prioritize early-stage or idea phase founders belonging to the Basecamp programmes network e.g. those who have applied before and were not chosen to the accelerator or those who have attended our events.

We will select the startups that show motivation, dedication, and desire to turn their ideas into viable businesses.
