Testimonials
Aya called this thing an incubation program when it's really a self-actualisation portal. The human layer for real.
Working with AyaHQ has been an incredible experience for the team. From the incubator programs to the builder summits and community programming, AyaHQ doesn't just support startup innovation. They create a deeply human-centric environment where founders can actualize their vision and build for long-term success.
Chidubem Emelumadu
Lisk African Ecosystem Lead
The AyaHQ x Lisk incubation program has been a game changer for me. When I started, I had no idea how to navigate the business world, but their mentorship and hands-on guidance helped me build confidence and develop the skills I needed to grow my venture. I'm incredibly grateful for the support and practical knowledge I gained through the program.
Samuel Anthony
Co-founder of Thellex
The program has been a really insightful journey which highlighted important requirements in making a business investible, the founders more confident in their business, and also making decisions backed by adequate research and understanding of their industry. I enjoyed the work sessions, pitch practice, and the one-on-one discussions with the facilitators, not forgetting the community born out of the cohort. I highly recommend this program!

This program is for any builder focused on solving African problems. It provides a supportive community of people who understand Africa's challenges & opportunities and are ready to walk the long mile of builder for Africa.

Co-Founder Cryptomomo
The challenge was a real eye-opener for me personally. I discovered how to integrate smart contracts into web applications, and it was a total blast. Thanks to the Aya Builder Collective Challenge and my awesome teammates, I learned something completely new.
