Inua 1961
A long-horizon programme to prepare African innovators for a global digital economy.
A generation should not have to leave home to meet the world. The world should be able to meet them where they are, and walk with them further.

Inua 1961 is a multi-decade programme to find, prepare and connect African innovators, beginning in Tanzania. It is named for a horizon, not a campaign: first Tanzania (2027-2030), then East Africa (2031-2035), then the continent (2036-2045).
The work is scholarships, STEM pathways, and the information and partnerships that make international study, work and building possible. Too many young people already have the talent. They are missing the door.
1961 is not a second brand. It is Inua Hub thinking in decades instead of workshops. An institution learning how to last.
