African green entrepreneurs invited to apply for Anzisha Prize

Apply now for the latest edition of the Anzisha Prize, emphasizing green entrepreneurs who blend innovation with sustainability.

The Anzisha Prize aims to substantially increase the number of job-generating entrepreneurs in Africa. The initiative believes a crucial approach involves assessing, implementing, and sharing models for identifying, training, and connecting highly promising young entrepreneurs (aged 15 to 22) – along with their parents and teachers. This ensures better collective success among organizations, creating a pipeline of entrepreneurs with scalable capabilities.

In this edition, the Anzisha Prize application season highlights the significant influence of entrepreneurship in shaping African societies, with a specific focus on green entrepreneurship. The 2023/24 cohort will welcome 29 outstanding applicants.

By participating in the Anzisha Prize, these entrepreneurs not only stand a chance to win a portion of the substantial cash prizes exceeding US$60,000 but also gain valuable practical support for their businesses.
