African Puzzle WORKS - Press Release ENG

The audio and photo application to organize your work without having to read or to write.

Have you ever heard of a mobile app that allows project management, creation of customer files, cash fl ow monitoring, smart scheduling and a showroom for your products? You feel excluded from digital? Discover African Puzzle WORKS the digital secretary of entrepreneurs who remember everything and make their customers happy!

Bams and Renée Clément, founders of the Startup African Puzzle, start from a field study that highlights the discomfort of many small entrepreneurs with the existing productivity tools, austere, adapted to digital natives, profiles as collaborators, company executives. They require a certain amount of time to understand and when we think about Africa in particular, where nearly 40% of the population is illiterate and where the informal sector plays a predominant role in the economy, the need to address these customers with appropriate digital solutions is paramount! This mobile application was also awarded, on Monday 19 December 2022 in Dakar, with the 1st Blue Ocean Awards, dedicated to innovative entrepreneurship.
