Live2Africa: Report of a validation workshop on proposed hybrid business model, and governance structure for the regional Technology and Innovation Incubation hubs in Africa (A-TiChubs)

Abstract

This report is the outcome of a validation exercise for hybrid continental draft business models for the establishment and operation of regional Technology and Innovation Incubation hubs in Africa (A-TiChubs). The draft models were created earlier in December 2018 during a writeshop. The A-TiChubs are thought to be meeting places for inventors, agribusiness entrepreneurs, and technology entrepreneurs. These centers of excellence provide young innovators with creative spaces, infrastructure services, mentorship, intellectual property management, access to financial resources, and networking opportunities.
