The Labs mission is to become a catalyst for early stage companies to graduate into venture capital ready companies. Start-ups and entrepreneurs can capitalize on the experience, skills and networks that Semantic Seed can provide to streamline development and accelerate commercialization of ideas.

Ideas are important but we also look for motivation, passion and brains. The ideal start up companies we are looking for usually has one to two founders, and are highly technical. Our founding sponsors, Break Through Ventures, and Urban Technology Ventures provide micro-loans and other resources to help entrepreneurs get started on their ideas in exchange for 2%-10% equity after finishing our program.

We help entrepreneurs go from the idea stage to a real company with a product or service generating revenue.

To attract these young entrepreneurs we have set up a board comprised of a “Think Tank” of mentor entrepreneurs with hands on operating experience. We will also partner with Universities, and established enterprises to identify budding
ideas and future trends.

In addition: We have invested in setting up a facility in Uganda to build capacity for software developers, and networking professionals. We are clustering young Africans to build the next generation of great African companys.
