About Westerwelle Startup Haus Mombasa

The Westerwelle Foundation for International Understanding, headquartered in Berlin, Germany, is a non-profit organization established in 2013 by Dr. Guido Westerwelle, former German Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Ralph Dommermuth, CEO and Founder of United Internet AG.

The Foundation's work aims to accelerate digital transformation in emerging economies and create positive spill-over effects that strengthen transparency, integrity, and innovation within both private and public sector institutions. To support entrepreneurship ecosystems and foster innovation, the Westerwelle Foundation operates entrepreneurship hubs known as Westerwelle Startup Haus. These hubs are currently located in Tunis (Tunisia), Kigali (Rwanda), Arusha (Tanzania), Mombasa (Kenya), and Accra (Ghana), providing entrepreneurs with access to workspaces, networks, mentoring, and entrepreneurship support programmes tailored to different sectors and stages of business development.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
