Founded by Aurélie Salvaire, a French citizen living in Barcelona, The A Factor’s African tour will showcase Africa’s potential to the world other than the negative and poor image international media portray.

Salvaire told TechMoran, ” The  innovation tour Nairobi is a learning journey in which a select group will meet local entrepreneurs, start-ups, incubators, investors, journalists, artists, or even activists, in emerging markets.”

“We hope to have around 10 people for this first tour but I will be coming on August 10th to Nairobi to shoot a documentary with a spanish TV crew on different social innovators. It would be the first official tour I would do,” she added.

 She said the tour will take the team to all innovations, would it be technological, social, artistic, political among others to provide opportunities for possible connections, partnerships, mentoring, and investment that are not available to ople outside of this network.
