The reason why most of us hated numbers back in high school was because they were confusing and difficult to understand. These numbers caught my attention today, and I decided to share them with you in a simplified form.
- 200, The number of StartUps DEMO Africa has launched since they started.
- $120000, The amount of money Microsoft is sponsoring the Moroccan winner
- $15000, the amount of money the winner will get from Amazon to boost their business
- $54 000 000, raised in investing billing by the startups helped by DEMO Africa
- 6, years DEMO Africa has been having these Innovation Tours.
- 15, times a year the Innovation Tours are conducted in different African cities.
- 1, the number of people per winning team DEMO Africa will sponsor to Morocco
- 2, weeks the Moroccan winner will be in California Silicon Valley Bootcamp
- 17, the number of startups that pitched their ideas at the DEMO Africa Innovation Tour Harare
- 7, shortlisted candidates to do the final pitch
- 16.8, Billions of dollars traded by millennials online in 2017
- 8+, Billion of dollars traded by African based millennials online in 2017
- $2 600 000 000, the amount Uber is paying their brand strategist/fixer who is damage controlling their brand
- 4+, million active Facebook accounts in Zimbabwe
- 1/3, a fraction of the total operating budget a startup must set aside for marketing
- $100-$500, the amount of money a startup may have to set aside for a brand strategist per week or month
Knowledge is power, im sure you can find a way to manipulate these numbers, be it increasing your Facebook presence, or setting up a budget for branding and communication, or planning to participate in DEMO Africa Innovation Tour next year or starting your online business, bottom line, numbers never lie.
