Our vision is to energize the entrepreneurial and leadership vision of young people to create jobs, grow the local economy and serve millions of people across sub-Saharan Africa.

We deliver a curated entrepreneurship and leadership training program, Design Thinking and Innovation, business development support, and team building for young people in Africa. Empowering youths to start a business, create jobs, grow the local economy they leave in and serve millions of people across sub-Saharan Africa.

​

Our Training Model:

1. A structured multi-day workshop. Participants will explore human-centered design methodologies, need finding, ethnographic observation, engineering problem-solving methods, visualization, rapid prototyping, team dynamics, and project leadership. The vehicles for learning include hands-on activities, classroom exercises, discussions, short lectures, and rehearsals.

2. This initial introduction to design thinking methodology threads into an extensive exercise that asks participants to successfully infuse design thinking into business planning and entrepreneurial activities.

3. Participants will also be introduced to a series of creative confidence team building and leadership activities that will equip them with the leadership capacity to implement the business or project.
