H.E. Paula Ingabire, the Minister of ICT and Innovation of the DCO Member State, the Republic of Rwanda, emphasizes the country’s commitment to fostering a vibrant startup ecosystem.  The DCO Startup Guide complements these efforts by providing a roadmap for navigating Rwanda's startup scene and offering potential for expansion into other DCO Member States.

"The DCO's Startup Guide for Rwanda is a VITAL resource for innovators and entrepreneurs. It is designed to help them navigate the process of establishing and growing a startup. The guide also complements Rwanda's Startup Act which is under development. The guide provides a COMPREHENSIVE overview of our thriving innovation ecosystem giving entrepreneurs an IN-DEPTH perspective on how to navigate country-specific legal and regulatory structures as well as providing information on the facilitation that we offer as well as incentives starting with fiscal and non-fiscal incentives, labor, and immigration facilitation, intellectual property, data protection and more. Rwanda startups looking to scale in other DCO member state countries, particularly in the Middle East and Africa, can now benefit from similar guides that are available in 12 other DCO member state countries, and it is our hope that these guides will play a vital role in DRIVING CORSS-BORDER EXPANSION and LINKAGES for our entrepreneurs."

Great article by e-Residency on what makes Estonia’s startup ecosystem so unique and attractive for startups. Did you know Estonia has 10 unicorns? Not the kind that my kids are hoping to find 😉, but businesses valued at more than $1 billion. This puts the country at top of the leader board in Europe for the number of unicorns per capita 🤯🦄 Worth a read especially if you’re thinking of starting or expanding your business ⬇️

A year ago, amidst unprecedented challenges, Fundit took a bold step to support Israeli #startups through the #TechShield Adaptive Reverse-Fund. This initiative wasn’t just another collaboration—it was a commitment to revive Israel’s startup by opening doors to international investors passionate about Israeli innovation. In partnership with leading #VCs, we launched a groundbreaking model: reverse-fund syndicates. Instead of a traditional fund, investors could directly back specific startups handpicked by top VCs, building a personal connection to the companies driving Israel’s future.  💡🇮🇱As we reflect on this initiative’s success, we’re proud to have safeguarded not only the future of many promising startups but also a resilient Israeli economy. The past year has shown that when innovation meets purpose, the possibilities are endless.
