AYuTe Africa Challenge
The AYuTe Africa Challenge is one of the most ambitious agriculture competitions on the continent. We envision combining the power of African youth with the many possibilities of emerging technologies to support smallholder farmers across Africa to grow their businesses and incomes — a transformative force we call AYuTe.
The annual AYuTe Africa Challenge awards cash grants to the most promising young agritech innovators across Africa. Through a regional competition, we award up to US $1.5 million each year.
In 2022, national competitions in Ethiopia, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, Senegal and Uganda will award up to $20,000 in each country – with more to follow in 2023.
