The incubation and mentoring program called “Greenovations Africa - 2023” is part of the Greenovations project´s strategy to build capacities of young and women African innovators and entrepreneurs in the green sector with tailor-made support, mentorship, as well as seed grant funding to bring their innovations to market and scale in the green sector. Applicants may apply until 23rd April 2023.

Are you a business with an innovative solution in Africa that tackles existing challenges in one of the following green sectors:

• Smart agriculture
• Renewable energy
• Waste management
• Water management
• Climate action

Apply to the program to receive tailor-made support, mentorship, as well as a seed grant funding to bring your innovation to market and scale.

Advancement of the green sector within an ongoing context of transition to a low-carbon economy in Africa has the potential to foster entrepreneurship development and faster growth potential, particularly for youth-and women-led entrepreneurial initiatives.

By expanding the portfolio of bankable, concept-proofed green business models that are both market- and investor-ready, we can create job opportunities and contribute to the continent’s economic welfare. The ensuing creation of job opportunities bolsters the continent’s GDP growth potential, currently valued at $500 billion/year over the next 30 years.
