Last week in Wilmington, a group of 15 to 20 young entrepreneurs from South Africa are looking to form partnerships with various corporations in Delaware in hopes of obtaining a new set of skills, ideas, and knowledge that they can take with them to their own businesses.
This three-day program is called Business Accelerator which is hosted by both ACT Generation and StartUpAfrica.
