Fintech Incubation Programme – Cohort 2
Application for the 2nd cohort of the Fintech Incubation Programme is open.
Co-creation Hub launched the Fintech Innovation Programme in Rwanda in December 2021 with the first cohort ending in July 2022.
The project, which is powered by Google, Mojaloop Foundation, and the government of Rwanda, is set to admit the second cohort of beneficiaries.
For three months, eight (8) startups will be supported to achieve important growth milestones through the programme.
As part of this project, we will be supporting early-stage fintech startups and innovators (with at least an MVP) through a 3-month incubation programme.
Selected companies will be supported with equity-free funding of $10,000 among other benefits.
In addition to the support and access to Mojaloop and Google resources, the incubation programme will create the opportunity for selected companies to receive further investment through the project partners’ investor networks.
