Where ideas become companies.

ACLIS Lab is our accelerator. We train young talent, run Burundi's developer community and spin off new ventures from innovations that prove themselves in the field.

Partner with the LabGDG Bujumbura

Talent in, ventures out.

COYEDI started as our corporate social responsibility arm with NGOs. Today it works as a full pipeline, from first line of code to first customer.

Venture building

We take promising ideas from our client work, hackathons and community, then build them into companies with their own teams, products and customers.

Bootcamps & training

Hands-on digital skills programmes for young graduates, girls and partner staff, run with UNICEF, GIZ, UN Women and NGOs.

Hackathons & challenges

It started with Burundi's first local developer competition in February 2019. We still run challenges that turn problems into prototypes.

GDG Bujumbura

We organise Google Developer Group Bujumbura: meetups, DevFests and study jams that connect local developers to the global community.

From the lab to the market.

Ideas that work for one client often work for a whole sector. The Lab gives them a team, a product roadmap and a path to becoming their own company.
