The Urban Links Africa team at Connected Place Catapult are excited to launch our Open Call on the 24th June!

We are inviting UK SMEs to form Equitable Partnerships with South African or Kenyan organisations to develop collaborative solutions to a city challenge which has been identified in South Africa and Kenya:

South Africa

▲ Resilience in Informal Settlements (Cape Town)

▲ Urban Mobility (Johannesburg)

▲ Waste Management & Pollution (Durban)

Kenya (challenges apply for Mombasa, Nairobi, Kisumu)

▲ Stormwater Drainage and Urban Flooding

▲ Solid Waste Management

▲ Traffic Management and Active Mobility

▲ Wastewater Management

Successful partnerships will receive funding to co-develop their tech concept or solution, access powerful new networks and gain expert support from us, which can lead to joint ventures and commercial opportunities in the urban space.
