Flippy Campus, the social app for tertiary students in Ghana, makes a bold claim as the go-to place for university students all over Ghana to connect and share information easily.

To help accomplish this promise, Flippy Campus utilizes campus ambassadors who are influential, have huge following on social media, and know where all the action on campus is.

This quarter, Team Flippy is daring to do more. They are looking to partner with entrepreneurial students on campus — students who are into starting new projects, organizing events or even building small businesses on campus. They will be the Flippy Campus Entrepreneurs.

The plan is to support these students with the Flippy Campus brand, opening them up to a global network of tech enthusiasts, media personas, and students in other schools across Africa. This will help the young entrepreneurs to grow their business, and learn from the masters at Flippy Campus, to pursue their own entrepreneurial excellence.

“We want the students to leverage on the Flippy Brand and network, both in the media and tech space, to promote themselves as competent entrepreneurs and gain more exposure. “ “Of course we benefit from this venture through the awareness the students create with our brand, but the goal truly is to support the students with all the experiential resources we have to make them achieve their dreams.” — says Ammishaddai Ofori, the new CEO of Flippy Campus.

Flippy Campus is looking for crazy daring Campus Influencers who can

  • Take their own initiatives and transform with the Flippy Campus brand to transform their campuses
  • Interact with the top brands in the country using the Flippy Campus brand
  • Grow and promote the Flippy Campus brand on your Campus

Starting on Monday, the 20th of February the team will be visiting campuses across Ghana with some of the best fellows from the Meltwater Entrepreneurial School of Technology (MEST) who have built international businesses brands from around the world, to help recruit the top 5 Flippy Campus Entrepreneurs from every campus.
