For its flagship Africa Youth Summit 5.0, YANGG went straight to the engine of change: entrepreneurship. On 12 September 2020, streamed live on Zoom and Facebook, “AFRIPRENEUR and Young Innovators” brought together youth leaders, founders, innovators, and development partners from across the continent.
From scaling impact-focused businesses and home-grown tech innovation to gender-responsive entrepreneurship and resilience in volatile economies, the panellists got honest about the founder journey: the wins, the hurdles, and the strategies that actually work. The throughline? Innovation isn't just a buzzword — it's empowerment, job creation, and local transformation in action.
