Webinar recording
After two successful rounds of the Resilient Agriculture Innovations for Nature (RAIN) Challenge, we are pleased to be teaming up with Shockwave Foundation and Munich Re Foundation on round III.
RAIN aims to convert seed-level innovative agricultural ideas that are meeting resilience needs in East Africa and scale them to sustainable business ideas of interest to private investors and funders. Winners will be connected with potential funders, receive a tailored mentoring program, and communications support to refine their messaging. In addition, they will be invited to an investor forum and pitching session in-person or virtually. Experts will facilitate a leadership academy for the shortlisted candidates. Lastly, winners will receive a cash prize of up to 50,000 USD after the initial mentoring period and after the leadership academy.
RAIN is open to not-for-profit organisations across public, local civil society, international NGOs and academia, as well as for-profit organisations, farmers, and entrepreneurs in East Africa (Burundi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda).
Join us on 16 January at 3 PM EAT for a webinar to learn more about the challenge and how to apply.
