Egyptian startup incubator Innoventures has selected 11 startups to join the third cohort of its Startup Reactor accelerator, with the top three graduates of the programme to secure seed funding and up to EUR10,000 (US$10,955) in prizes.

At the end of the programme, the startups will participate in a Startup Showcase, where they will pitch to an audience of investors, potential partners and customers.  

The top three startups will receive seed funding, and up to EUR10,000 (US$10,955) in prizes; with funds provided by Innoventures’ partners VC4Africa and Oxfam Novib, under the Work in Progress! Alliance.

The 11 selected startups include backend-development solution Quanode; social platform for charities Insanya; online travel portal Hezaha W Safer; waste management technology provider Zerowaste Technologies; online B2B platform Utmost; and virtual reality company Panda VR.
