The Sustainable Innovation Seed Accelerator is designed for early-stage founders developing tech-enabled solutions in core sustainability sectors: agriculture, mobility, built environment, and energy. They believe these industries hold the key to a more climate-resilient, inclusive future and they’re backing the founders who are building it.
.
As part of UNDP’s timbuktoo initiative this 8-week program will take place in the GreenTech Hub in Nairobi (4 weeks in person, 4 weeks hybrid). The program helps startups refine their commercial strategy, strengthen their technical foundation, and connect with a supportive ecosystem. Through a mix of mentorship, peer learning, and hands-on programming, the goal is simple: help founders develop their ideas into scalable, sustainability-driven businesses.

- Hands-on guidance through 1:1 office hours with both commercial and technical experts in the sustainability field
- Engaging workshops, bi-weekly roundtables, and fireside chats with industry leaders to refine your growth strategies.
- Valuable connections with fellow founders, local ecosystem partners, and potential customers through cohort activities and networking events.
- 3-day, 2-night retreat to reset and refocus on leadership, wellness, team building, and impact-driven discussions.
