What is The African Network?

he African Network, TAN, is a global non-profit organization with the sole mandate of fostering entrepreneurship and technology in Africa and among people of African descent. TAN was founded in Silicon Valley to provide a support structure and network for entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs worldwide. The objective of TAN is to leverage all available resources through networking, education, and mentoring to develop entrepreneurs among all people of African descent.

Part of TAN's mission is to showcase Africa to the world as the next viable economic center and one of the fastest growing emerging markets, with the intention of generating interests and appropriate investments in science and technology. These investments will undoubtedly stimulate the overall growth and development of the continent. At TAN, we believe the best way to tackle poverty is not to give aid, but to empower people to become economically independent and self sufficient.
