Bekanty Yao Chance Amour Amani

I’m Bekanty Yao Chance Amour AMANI, a graduate in digital sciences and sustainable development with an MBA in actuarial sciences, originally from Botro, Côte d’Ivoire. With 10 years’ experience, I specialize in data analysis, project management and digital communications, while being deeply committed to sustainable development and innovation. Co-founder of the African Network of Women Entrepreneurs and Investors, I am also Professor at the University of Burundi, Coach Accompanier, and Trainer for entrepreneurs and young startups.

I mentor primarily to actively contribute to the startup ecosystem and support aspiring entrepreneurs. Having accumulated a decade of experience in data analysis, project management and digital communications, I feel a strong responsibility to share my knowledge with those who are building the future. I believe that mentoring is a concrete way of giving back to the community while having a direct impact on the growth and success of new businesses, particularly in Africa.

At the same time, mentoring allows me to expand my professional network and make meaningful connections for myself and the organization I represent. These interactions open doors to new collaborations, whether as an advisor or even for board positions. Exposure to different industries and innovative ideas also enriches my understanding of emerging markets and technological trends.

Finally, by engaging in mentoring, I also seek to identify new investment opportunities. Accompanying promising startups enables me to identify projects with high growth potential, while ensuring that these initiatives are aligned with my values, particularly in terms of sustainable development and innovation.
