Youth Innovation Challenge

Begins May 25, 2026

Our mission is to help professionals in East Africa escape the cycle of underemployment by equipping them with the knowledge, tools, and resources to succeed as entrepreneurs.

Our vision is to create an ecosystem of high-performing startup founders throughout East Africa who are positioned to scale their businesses and transform their local communities. 

À SHIFT Enterprise Academy, nous croyons qu'il est important de donner aux esprits ambitieux les moyens d'atteindre leur plein potentiel en leur présentant #TheSHIFTAapproach.

Notre mission est d'aider les professionnels d'Afrique de l'Est à échapper au cycle du sous-emploi en les dotant des connaissances, des outils et des ressources nécessaires pour réussir en tant qu'entrepreneurs.

#TheSHIFTApproach is a transformative learning model designed by SHIFT Enterprise Academy to empower individuals with the skills, mindset, and resources needed to succeed as entrepreneurs in the digital age. This approach is rooted in experiential learning, mentorship, and a supportive ecosystem.

WHAT IS THE SHIFT APPROACH?

The SHIFT program design encompasses several interconnected elements that collectively drive change at multiple levels, ranging from the individual to the community, institution, and system levels.

"OPERATION IMMENSE IMPACT"

SHIFT's multi-level program design aims to create a comprehensive impact. By fostering entrepreneurship at individual, community, institution, and system levels, we promote economic growth, empower individuals, and influence urban development. The resulting ripple effects extend beyond entrepreneurs to their households and communities, contributing to broader societal resilience and prosperity. This aligns seamlessly with the foundational goals of using technology and education to drive intergenerational mobility across Africa and less developed demographics.
