Do It Now Now + Happy Porch
IN DECEMBER 2019, WE MATCHED AFRICAN ACCELERATOR, DO IT NOW NOW, WITH DEVELOPERS, HAPPY PORCH.
Do It Now Now is an open innovation organisation looking to bring social empowerment to black communities across the globe. Part of their offering and ambition has been to be able to support African founders to get access to the same resources as startups in Silicon Valley through an accelerator programme and community.
Do It Now Now and their award-winning founder, Bayo Adelaja (Chief Do-er!), were keen to bring this accelerator and community online.
We matched them with impact-driven developers, Happy Porch, who created and brought their initial MVP to life within 3 weeks. The online community is now being used to scale Do It Now Now’s impact and give more founders access to their incredible resources.
“We were delighted to be matched with Bayo and the Afritech program. Contributing our skills and experience via pro-bono projects is a core part of our purpose. Afritech.xyz is a really interesting program and a little bit different for us. Bayo had a very clear vision and it was enjoyable and rewarding to work with her. Hopefully Afritech continues to have a growing impact.”
“Working with Matchable has been such a fantastic pleasure. The team was attentive and supportive throughout the entire process, giving us the help we needed to make the most of the match we gained in Happy Porch.
They matched us in terms of interest in the subject matter as well as skill needed, which made working with the Happy Porch team all the more enjoyable. ”
