We offer Themed Accelera sessions every quarter, each focusing on various topics.

The selection of these topics is driven by the specific needs and challenges that African ventures encounter. We determine these needs through extensive research and engaging discussions with ventures.

Partners Involved

We have designed our entire institution around young people’s agency and autonomy as changemakers. Students declare missions, not majors – defining their educational experience by the impact they want to make in the world.

We believe students learn best when they can see their education in action and that some of the greatest lessons come not only from our world-class faculty and staff, but also from industry professionals and peers. We believe that in order to prepare you to make the greatest impact in the world, you should not have to wait until you graduate.
