“Innovation thrives in an environment in which problems are perceived as opportunities and where non-linear thinking is encouraged. In a culture of openness to sharing ideas and best practices and a willingness to transfer knowledge and expertise. ENRICH in Africa has the ambition to do just that. Bringing future-builders from across the two continents together. Collaborate to innovate.”
