Digital Launchpad: First Cohort Kickoff in Sunyani
On September 10, 2026, Novus Foundation launched the inaugural cohort of the Digital Launchpad in Sunyani, Bono Region, Ghana. The program aims to equip young people and NGOs with digital skills, mentorship, and practical project experience to accelerate digital entrepreneurship and community-led innovation.
The cohort of 25 participants completed an intensive 8-week curriculum covering digital literacy, web development basics, digital marketing, and an introduction to AI tools for social impact. Participants worked on community-focused projects, presenting prototypes at the closing showcase.
Program Highlights
- Flagship Tech Initiatives: 2
- Target Youth & NGO Participants: 100 (launch-phase target)
- Planned Hours of Mentorship & Training: 50
The program emphasizes practical mentorship: local practitioners paired with participants to provide sustained guidance. Early feedback shows participants gaining confidence in digital tools and applying them to local challenges, from civic engagement to small-business growth.
Novus Foundation collaborates with regional partners to expand reach across the Bono Region and beyond. Future iterations aim to scale this model while prioritizing inclusive access and hands-on mentorship.
