This year’s awards are focused on renewable energy, water efficiency, and waste beneficiation, with renewable energy being the top sector.
The programme has also expanded efforts to involve underserved
communities by partnering with TVET colleges to promote STEM education and
interest in clean tech. Previous winners have gained business mentorship,
funding opportunities, and market access, allowing them to take their solutions
to market.
