Each start-up in the Injini EdTech Incubator Cohort 3 will be eligible for a ZAR 100k grant (ca. $7.5k), after which the cohort will compete for a follow-on equity investment of up to $75k per startup.
About the Incubator:
Injini is the first EdTech-dedicated incubator programme on the African continent. It is the only opportunity for EdTech entrepreneurs based anywhere in Africa to get industry specialist mentoring, support, scale up and funding introductions, and early-state funding.
Eligibility:
- The programme is open to anyone from, based in, or focused on any African country.
- Non-profits & for profit businesses, focused on Africa and on as broad a section of the population as possible (especially low income), that address learning from early years to adults using technology.
- Innovative but effective approaches that can scale quickly.
- Tested tech used because evidence shows it can improve the quality of or extend access to education, not for the sake of using tech.
Benefits:
- Everyone in the program will be covered for flights to and from Cape Town, for accommodation, and receive a small allowance for extra living costs incurred while in Cape Town.
- As part of the revised programme of Injini EdTech Incubator Cohort 3, each start-up will be eligible for a ZAR 100k grant (ca. $7.5k)
