Working with Others

Expert guidance for visionary entrepreneurs navigating the complexities of the African tech landscape and investment readiness.

Projects & Institutional Portfolio

True transformation requires more than short-term interventions; it demands robust architecture and localized expertise. This portfolio showcases a diverse blueprint of high-impact institutional programs designed, facilitated, and executed independently or in strategic alignment with global partners like Comic Relief ,FCDO, RISA, the World Bank, GIZ, and the Mastercard Foundation.

My track record spans the full lifecycle of ecosystem development from collaborating with regional pillars such as NEIP, AfriLabs, and Ghana Hubs Network, I have assisted in building sustainable innovation hub capacities, engineered rigorous curriculum design, and delivered premier investment readiness training. In partnership with the E4Impact Foundation, Google for Startups, and Indigo Trust, my work bridges systemic gaps from hosting vital gender awareness training to executing targeted marketing launches for leading academic programs.

Every case study below represents a validated milestone in transforming development theory into on-the-ground economic reality. Explore the bilateral frameworks defining the future of Pan-African growth.

Ghana Hubs Network (GHN)

Project Title: National Ecosystem Coordination

As a founding member and former Chairperson of the Ghana Hubs Network, I helped support the development of a national platform for innovation hubs and enterprise support organisations in Ghana. The Network exists to strengthen collaboration, reduce fragmentation, and improve the voice and capacity of hubs across the country.

My work included governance support, ecosystem coordination, stakeholder engagement, policy contribution, and capacity-building conversations with hubs across different regions. This experience gives me a rare view of Ghana’s innovation landscape from both the operator and systems level. I understand what founders need, what hubs struggle with, and what funders often miss when designing entrepreneurship programmes.

E4Impact Foundation

Project Title : International Certificate in Impact Entrepreneurship

Space Foundation was selected as the lead marketing and communications partner for the launch of the International Certificate in Impact Entrepreneurship in Ghana, led by E4Impact Foundation. The programme was designed to equip entrepreneurs and aspiring founders with practical skills in business strategy, innovation, impact, and sustainable enterprise development.

My contribution focused on positioning, campaign strategy, stakeholder communication, and programme visibility. The assignment combined my understanding of entrepreneurship education with the practical demands of reaching the right founders, shaping a clear message, and supporting the public launch of an academic and enterprise development programme.

AfriLabs

Project Title: Continental Hub Ecosystem Development

Through iSpace Foundation’s membership and active participation in AfriLabs, I contributed to the wider African innovation hub movement. iSpace hosted the first AfriLabs Annual Gathering in Accra in 2016, helping bring together hub leaders, ecosystem builders, entrepreneurs, and partners from across the continent.

This experience shaped my view of ecosystem development at a regional level. It showed that hubs are not isolated buildings. They are connectors between talent, capital, policy, markets, and community. My work with AfriLabs helped strengthen my ability to think beyond single programmes and design support systems that can serve founders, hubs, and national ecosystems.

Comic Relief

Project Title: Unlocking Women and Technology

Through the Unlocking Women and Technology programme, I worked on one of iSpace Foundation’s most important gender and technology interventions. Supported by Comic Relief, UWAT was designed to address the underrepresentation of women in Ghana’s technology and entrepreneurship ecosystem by combining digital skills, business development, mentoring, and practical startup support.

The programme helped women move from exclusion to participation, and from participation to enterprise creation. It reached women from different economic and social backgrounds and used technology as both a skill pathway and a tool for solving local problems. UWAT later gained international recognition, including Google’s Diversity and Inclusion Award, showing the strength of the model and its relevance beyond Ghana.

RISA

Project Title: Research, Innovation and Commercialisation

Beyond gender awareness, my work with RISA helped deepen iSpace Foundation’s position in the research and innovation ecosystem. The project created stronger links between innovation hubs, academic institutions, researchers, and entrepreneurs, with the aim of improving how research ideas move toward commercial and social use.

This work addressed a long-standing gap in Ghana’s innovation ecosystem: strong ideas and research often exist, but the pathway to market, adoption, and financing is weak. Through workshops, ecosystem engagement, and co-creation sessions, we helped build a more practical bridge between knowledge production, founder support, and commercialisation

UKAid

Project Title: Gender Awareness Programme

Through the Research and Innovation Systems for Africa Fund, supported by UKAid/FCDO, iSpace Foundation implemented the Gender Awareness Programme. The project focused on helping innovation hubs and ecosystem organisations understand, design, and apply gender, equity, diversity, and inclusion principles in their programming and institutional practice.

My role sat at the intersection of ecosystem design, curriculum development, facilitation, and stakeholder engagement. The programme recruited and trained innovation hubs, supported the development of practical GEDI tools, and created space for hubs to rethink how they serve women, people with disabilities, and marginalised groups. This work strengthened my understanding of how inclusion must be built into systems, not treated as a side activity.
