A collaborative, entrepreneurial and inclusive Africa is possible.
We work with 3 priority targets:
- Community leaders: A civil society committed and structured to solve the challenges of their communities
- Impact entrepreneurs equipped to create business and impact
- Institutions and NGOs equipped to facilitate the transition of the development system

And this, through 3 main pillars of intervention:
- Training and action on 21st century skills (creativity, collaboration, initiative)
- Support and incubation of impact projects (start-ups and companies, multi-stakeholder projects)
- Development of communities and ecosystems around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Business and social are not antinomic, they are complementary - African economies can drive social and environmental impact!

We are also very interested in skills sponsorship and mentoring to support our teams and the entrepreneurs we incubate in their rise in competence, always in this quest to maximize impact.
