Here is a suggestion to apply for this program from one of ASTU EDC alumni based on her experience.

"I wanted to share that applications for a program I was part of last yearโ€”the Jim Leech Mastercard Foundation Fellowship on Entrepreneurshipโ€”are now open for 2025. This program offers African students and recent graduates a unique opportunity to develop entrepreneurial skills through world-class training, mentorship, and access to a global network of changemakers.

Please share with those who might benefit from this."
