Inside the Journey

Learning, Building, Growing...

The MTN Cloud Accelerator is more than a program. It is a launchpad. Over 12 weeks, startups move through a structured journey that combines mentorship, training, and community. Founders gain practical insights from industry leaders, refine their business models with expert guidance, and test integrations with MTN’s platforms.

Weekly sessions bring together mentors, special guests, and facilitators who provide real-world perspectives that startups can apply immediately. Alongside this, mixers and networking events create opportunities for collaboration, partnerships, and lasting connections.

Every step of the journey is designed to build confidence, sharpen strategy, and prepare the cohort for Demo Day, where their progress will be showcased to investors and the wider ecosystem.
