ENRICH in Africa - EiA’s Post

What a week - and there’s even more to come! Last week, we had the privilege of being part of the #Afrilabs Gathering at the CTICC in Cape Town, where key players in Africa’s tech innovation ecosystem- policy makers, researchers, innovators, investors, and entrepreneurial support organisations - came together. As part of the Cape Town ecosystem tour, we welcomed over 70 participants to our office. Our charismatic CEO, Zandile Ntuli, shared the history of ENRICH in Africa Center and its work in supporting AU-EU partnerships for tech and knowledge transfer to advance Africa’s tech frontier. Tendai Pasipamire, our charming BD lead, introduced our latest SEADE digital tools aimed at empowering researchers, while Melanie Mwangi, our engaging Center Support Officer, demonstrated how ESOs can use the ENRICH in Africa digital platform to enhance their sales pipeline and impact. Thomas Bongani Hart, French South African Tech Labs (one of our dedicated champions), Program Manager provided an insightful overview of SEADE, its goals, and our commitment to fostering deeper research collaboration between Africa and Europe. Christophe Viarnaud, CEO of Methys Group, added local flavour with the history of Cape Town’s tech journey. Fun fact: Cape Town is home to the engineers who developed Amazon's first Elastic Compute Cloud! Stay tuned!! A lot is happening this month! If you are in Cape Town, please let us know! Coffee is on us! Or should I say... wine 😉 To everyone who visited us, siyakwamkela emva!
