Highlighting Botswana’s growing startup scene and mental health initiatives in the city.
Odyssey Wellness, a Botswana-based startup founded in 2024, is reshaping how wellness is integrated into schools and workplaces. With tailored programs focused on teen mental health and corporate wellbeing, the initiative tackles gaps in preventative care and culturally relevant solutions. Despite being self-funded, Odyssey has secured interest from top private schools and is in talks with sponsors to fuel national rollout. The company’s dual-target model—schools and corporates—has struck a chord with educators and brands alike, signaling strong growth potential. With plans to expand across Southern Africa, Odyssey aims to make wellness a core pillar of education and workplace culture.
