A Look Back at the Pro-Congo Programme Pitch Day in Lubumbashi
On July 20, 2026, Nabahya Food Institute organized an Elevator Pitch presentation session to mark the conclusion of the Pro-Congo Programme’s pre-incubation Bootcamp.
The event gave 20 preselected entrepreneurs the opportunity to present their projects before an evaluation committee and several invited partners. During the Bootcamp, participants strengthened their skills in several key areas, including the Lean Canvas, value proposition development, market analysis, ESG self-assessment, and Elevator Pitch preparation.
The day was an important moment for sharing, learning, and highlighting entrepreneurial initiatives that contribute to forest conservation, sustainable agriculture, and economic development in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
We congratulate all the entrepreneurs for their commitment, creativity, and the quality of the projects they presented. We also thank the members of the evaluation committee, the partners, and everyone who contributed to the success of this event.
Through the Pro-Congo Programme, Nabahya Food Institute continues its commitment to supporting entrepreneurs and promoting the development of sustainable and responsible businesses.
