Elewa

Elewa is proud support the fight against plastic-waste 🍻 Over the last months, we worked with the Goodless team to develop a highly scalable and transparant backend platform which manages the refund process for reusable cups at festivals. The process removes both the mountains of single-use plastic waste produced at each festival/concert/sports event/..., as well as the frustration of managing deposits for reusable packaging between groups of friends and the bar. Refunds are instant once cups are returned. Payment orchestration works on closed-, open-loop and hybrid systems. On to a bright future without plastic waste, powered by Goodless!

Why Jobtech Alliance invested 🚀 Africa's youth population is growing rapidly, but there aren't enough quality jobs to meet their ambitions. Meanwhile, global demand for tech talent is rising, especially in Europe, yet many African developers face challenges, including a lack of visibility, trust, and access to overseas opportunities. Elewa, a Kenyan ICT agency, is delivering high-quality tech solutions to a global client base while developing Africa's next generation of tech talent. Their unique model goes beyond traditional outsourcing. They provide hands-on training and real project experience through their accelerator program, helping young developers build valuable skills. Jobtech Alliance is supporting Elewa's expansion in Europe by helping them establish a sales hub in the Netherlands and connect with new clients. Their investment aims to open up digital trade routes between Africa and Europe, create more skilled jobs, and set an example for other African tech providers.

Africa is home to the world's fastest-growing youth population, but the continent isn't creating enough quality jobs to match. At the same time, many countries in the Global North face severe talent shortages, especially in tech. We believe African talent can meet global demand. But bridging that gap takes more than good intentions. it takes infrastructure, partnerships, and companies ready to lead the way. In the third of a four-parter about job creation in Africa, we share why we backed Elewa, a Kenyan ICT firm delivering full-scope software solutions to global clients while training the next generation of African developers. With support from Oost NL, Elewa is expanding into the Netherlands, opening new digital trade routes and setting a blueprint for scaling African tech globally. So far, they've created 30+ skilled jobs, trained over 1,200 developers, and built a resilient delivery model even in the age of AI. Learn more: https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.plnkd.in/dz4h7M9m
