The Youth Cafe Accelarator Program.

About our accellarator program.

Building on TYC's legacy of innovation, the TYC Innovation Accelerator was launched in 2022 to pilot new solutions and scale promising innovations to accelarate youth empowerment. We supported 12 innovation projects at various maturity levels (i.e., sprint, scale-up) and positively impacted the lives of 1.5 million people across 12 countries in 2022. We received over 5,350 applications from 15 countries worldwide, showing the reach and value our innovation programmes offer.

In order to empower young people, the Youth Cafe (TYC) Innovation Accelerator identifies, encourages, and scales high-impact inventions. Based in Nairobi, Kenya, we offer money, practical help, and access to TYC's regional activities to TYC workers, entrepreneurs, and startups. Through the Accelerator, TYC is transforming how we provide support to vulnerable communities across Africa by utilizing previously unheard-of advancements in digital innovation, including mobile technology, artificial intelligence, big data, and blockchain.
