Twelve promising ed-tech startups in Kenya have been selected for the third cohort of the Mastercard Foundation EdTech Fellowship, a six-month acceleration program designed to supercharge education innovation. Launched in 2019, the initiative supports African ventures with funding, training, and post-program advisory, helping them scale and deepen their impact. This year’s cohort spans diverse solutions—from AI-powered assessments and indigenous-language literacy tools to robotics education and teacher-focused platforms. Each startup receives up to $100,000 in equity-free funding and a full year of expert advisory support. With a strong focus on sustainability, gender diversity, and transforming African education, the program is empowering a new generation of ed-tech leaders to build inclusive, tech-enabled futures for learners across the continent.
