The timbuktoo Launchpad for GreenTech Startups is a pan-African venture-building and incubation programme run by UNDP through its Kenya-hosted timbuktoo GreenTech Hub, supporting early-stage startups (with a prototype or MVP) working on climate action, clean energy, and environmental sustainability — including sustainable agriculture. Selected startups receive structured incubator support, expert mentorship, digital tools via the SIGMA platform, investment-readiness training, and access to a continental network of investors and ecosystem partners, with applications accepted on a rolling basis through quarterly cohorts.
Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis against the criteria below. SAIGE captures your intent to apply — linking this opportunity to your business profile — before handing you off to United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) — timbuktoo GreenTech Hub’s official application. This keeps your activity in one place and helps us surface better matches over time.
