ABOUT ANDELA
Called “the startup that’s harder to
get into than Harvard” by CNN, Andela is a business with a mission. We
are developing a corps of high-quality technology talent across the
African continent that will drive the current and future phases of
tech-enabled growth around the world. With the fastest growing
population and some of the highest youth unemployment in the world, we
believe Africa is one of the greatest untapped markets for talent
development.
At Andela, we find the brightest young people in
Africa, train them to be world-class fellows, and connect them with
employers around the world looking for top technical talent. Passion,
excellence, entrepreneurial spirit, and rejecting the status quo are
just a few of the things that Andela team members have in common. We
have a vision to train 100,000 world-class fellows in the next 10 years.

important social impact companies today.
