Call for Applications: 2025 AYuTe Africa NextGen for African Agripreneurs

The AYuTe Africa NextGen, an initiative of Heifer International, was established in 2021 as an agribusiness innovation initiative designed to catalyze ground-up innovation that address challenges faced by smallholder farmers at scale, providing the incubation and catalytic financing needed for these businesses to scale. AYuTe (Agriculture, Youth and Technology) combines the power of African youth with the many possibilities of emerging technologies to support smallholder farmers across the continent grow their businesses and incomes.

At the core of the initiative is the AYuTe Challenge, a competition that identifies and enables young African entrepreneurs to develop and scale agtech solutions. Selected companies receive part of a $1.5 million catalytic grant, along with technical support to scale their solutions and expand their impact.

AYuTe Africa NextGen Champions must demonstrate that their innovations are market-tested, farmer-ready and poised to provide an impact that will cascade across the food systems of multiple countries. And most importantly, you must prove you can empower smallholder farmers with solutions that enable them to increase their income and improve their livelihoods.
