Wowzi Joins the Endeavor Kenya Network

This is an important step for Endeavor Kenya towards our strategic objective to attract and integrate more local entrepreneurs into our ecosystem. With Wowzi on board, Endeavor Kenya now supports 15 companies as part of Endeavor Global Program.

Endeavor selected 26 entrepreneurs leading 13 companies at its 97th International Selection Panel (ISP) held October 23-25, 2023 in Rome, Italy. The organization now supports 2,532 entrepreneurs leading 1,553 companies in 42 markets around the world.

Each ISP is the culmination of a rigorous, multi-step selection process to identify high-impact entrepreneurs from all over the world. We seek founders with the greatest growth potential, as well as those who commit to reinvesting time and resources into their local entrepreneurial ecosystems to help build the next generation of entrepreneurs, sparking a Multiplier Effect.

During the ISP, panelists interview entrepreneurs about their businesses and evaluate their potential for high-impact growth. The panelists then discuss the candidates and vote whether to select them to become Endeavor Entrepreneurs. While panelists deliberated at this ISP, Entrepreneurs went on a scavenger hunt across Rome.
