In the terms of the formation of a continental bridge it is the mission of StArfrica - Startup Germany-Africa to increase the attractiveness of Germany - especially as a country of business start-ups from the scientific community - for African start-ups and to sensitize and facilitate the market entry of German start-ups in Africa, but if necessary also for the market entry of small and medium-sized companies in Africa. This will be implemented on a pilot basis with Rwanda and especially with the University of Rwanda in Kigali as a cooperation partner of ZIFET.
