BongoHive

BongoHive is Zambia’s first technology and innovation hub. Established in May 2011 and based in Lusaka, the co-founders, all enthusiastic programmers, sought to address the gaps they experienced working within the local technology industry leading to a lack of coordination, skills exposure and productivity. BongoHive has evolved to assist scalable startups of any background by enhancing skills, accelerating growth, strengthening networks, increasing collaboration, providing a forum for ideas exchange and reducing the barriers to entrepreneurship.

BongoHive provides a range of startup and tech programmes, workshops and events all focused on making Zambia Africa’s next hotbed of innovation. The programmes that they have created have been crafted to guide startups through the entrepreneurial journey; from idea right through to getting investment.  They collaborate extensively with like-minded organisations and industry leaders to ensure that they are delivering relevant material that helps startups thrive.  Their partners and stakeholders include a number of Zambian government entities from local to republic level alongside both local and international non-governmental, corporate and tertiary education partner.
