Our Story

A community for entrepreneurs to foster collaboration and provide a support system

EBH Africa started in 2020 with the aim of creating a community to foster networking, collaboration and learning exchange for growth amongst new and already existing entrepreneurs.

Soon after the community was founded, the global covid-19 pandemic caused a lot of businesses around Africa to be put on hold and most businesses had to shut down. 

The community eventually served as a safe space to provide the needed support for business owners which in turn increased the number of entrepreneurs in the community with representation from seven African countries.
