The Pan-African launchpad
for women agripreneurs.
A 12-week, action-oriented accelerator connecting 40 women agribusiness owners directly to the partners, markets and capital they need. Not a course — a catalyst.
History is Calling.
We are at a once-in-a-generation inflection point. While women make up 80% of Africa’s agricultural labor, a $100B financing gap holds them back.
The Cost of Inaction:
Stalled progress and millions hungry.
The AgriPro Opportunity:
AgriPro Catalyst W is the only accelerator that combines Venture Building + Direct Market Infrastructure + Policy Influence.
Most accelerators give you a contact.
We give you a connection that's real.
A warm intro you chase for months isn't access. Because AgriPro operates the market rails — data, logistics, offtake and policy access — the partners we connect you to can actually transact. When we open a door, it's already open.
Real numbers behind your pitch
Live pricing and demand data from the Ayeeko platform — so the figures you take to an investor are defensible, not guessed.
Supply you can actually fulfil
Cold storage, aggregation and transport through SmartChain — so a new buyer order is one you can deliver on, at scale.
A buyer intro that becomes an order
Guaranteed offtake trials and premium pricing via Green Markets — turning a market connection into a real first contract.
A seat at the table that sets the rules
Direct lines to ministries through our Policy & Insights Lab — so your voice reaches the people who shape the market you operate in.
We own the rails. That's why the connections we make in the next 12 weeks hold up after the program ends.

We solve your specific problem.
Every founder enters with a different bottleneck. So we run a simple, repeatable engine on your business — diagnosing the real constraint, then making the exact connection that breaks it.
Assess
We diagnose your single biggest constraint right now — capital, market access, supply, or compliance. No generic syllabus.
Connect
We introduce you directly to the one partner who can move the needle — an investor, an offtake buyer, a logistics provider, or a policymaker.
Equip
Targeted prep — pitch coaching, data room, term-sheet readiness — so you walk into that connection ready to close, not just talk.
12 Weeks of Action.
September 1 – November 23, 2026. Then we take it to the Summit.
Diagnose
Deep-dive on your business. We pinpoint the constraint to break.
Matchmake
Direct introductions to the partner who can unlock your next stage.
