Process
Turn an admitted learner into a launch-ready Social Entrepreneur.
Each stage has a reason, a concrete output and a defined handoff. Moving forward is not the same as silently approving the next gate.
Validate & build
Test customers, solution, operations, money, impact and founder practice during Weeks 1–2.
- Why it matters
- Launch decisions should be based on real evidence, not only a classroom plan.
- Output
- Validated venture dossier
- Next handoff
- Week 3 finalisation
Finalise & pitch
Complete Business Plan, formation pack, technology/banking readiness, Launch Harambee budget and 90-day plan.
- Why it matters

- Next handoff
- Launch then 12-month incubation
End-of-process handoffSuccessful launch enters the enterprise into the 12-month incubation and extension operating cycle.
Dynamic cohorts
Related ventures together when it helps.
Where sufficient related ventures exist, Ubunifu can form a sector cohort such as agribusiness. Otherwise, a mixed cohort receives common venture-building sessions plus specialist clinics.
Week 1 · Learn & Validate
Problem evidence, customers, market, solution, prototype, founder practice and field learning.
Week 2 · Build & Prepare
Operations, pricing, finance, impact, governance, technology, banking readiness and formation preparation.
Week 3 · Finalise & Pitch
Final Business Plan, formation-ready documentation, confirmed name options, Launch Harambee budget/pitch and 90-day implementation plan.
Monthly Hub rhythm: new Social Entrepreneur cohorts report on the 1st from January through November. Participants leave after Day 21 so the final week can reset the Hub and prepare the next cohort. December is the annual programme recess: no Foundation lessons and no Bootcamp.
What the fee can include
All scheduled meals, incubation workspace, internet, programme facilitation, specialist clinics, mentor time, learning materials, field visits, programme administration and approved sector-specific requirements. Accommodation is separately priced, waived, Program Support-funded or institution-funded; support for a programme does not automatically fund a room.
Founder Practice
Time management, responsibility, teamwork, ethical conduct, peer contribution, wellbeing routines, adaptability and caring for others are observed with clear criteria. Physical exercise is inclusive participation, not athletic performance.
Published programmes

Participants can see the actual cohort programme, location, dates, fee and any Program Support/institutional contribution before accepting a place and paying.
