SUGUBA.

SUGUBA is a disruptive platform launched with the Dutch Good Growth Fund (DGGF) as the anchor investor. Suguba means Big Marketplace in Mande, a group of local languages spoken across West Africa. SUGUBA is a disruptive platform providing both “hardware” (office & events spaces) and “software” (TA and BDS programs) to “missing middle" entrepreneurs, start-ups and SMEs. SUGUBA is focused on enterprises run by youth and women. SUGUBA is fostering regional integration and regional trade in Francophone West Africa. SUGUBA's vision is to become the first sustainable, regionally connected network of locally run communities, workspaces and programs that support and scale the impact of SMEs and entrepreneurs across Francophone West Africa.
