Overview

The goal of Global Alliance Africa’s Open Innovation Intervention Programme is to help African companies find innovative solutions to technical problems that their traditional supply chains cannot solve. We do this by promoting cross-sectoral innovation transfer from organisations beyond their usual supply chains. Using our bespoke platform, we run Innovation Exchange Challenges to match real industry problems for large businesses with innovative companies or academic institutions who can provide novel, market ready solutions to those problems.

About the challenge

Global Alliance Africa and Animal Care Nigeria are seeking suitable technology to convert this waste into other formats such as renewable energy, chemical extraction, specialised compost, etc in a safe and sustainable way. A modular, scalable solution would be preferred, located on-site to minimise transport costs, and to benefit business operations directly. Solutions are invited from, but not limited to, the following sectors: Agriculture, Manufacturing, Chemistry, Biotechnology, Energy, Design, Construction.

Up to GBP 25,000 seed funding (Subject to T&C) is available for this challenge and Africa-based entrants, UK-based entrants and those from RoW are invited to apply. The winner of these innovation challenges will pitch to Animal Care Nigeria and will be invited to collaborate with them on a trial project.
