ABOUT Pilily
Africa is full of potential, and its greatest asset is its people. However, education all over the continent lacks critical leadership and entrepreneurial skills to help founders thrive. As a result, 54% of businesses in Africa fail, and one of the primary reasons is the lack of leadership support and management expertise.
