The contest is seeking three types of solutions. First, those that contribute to extending the product lifetime, closing resource loops, or optimizing resource efficiency through the reuse, refurbishment, or repair of electrical and electronic equipment. Second, solutions within the plastics value chain that help phase down single-use plastics. Third, innovations that promote a circular economy by integrating digital solutions and interoperable data models across product life cycle stages and value chains.

This competition not only provides a unique opportunity for African startups to gain recognition and support for their ideas but also encourages collaboration and knowledge sharing among participants from diverse backgrounds. Innovators who participate will have the chance to refine their solutions, gain valuable insights from industry experts, and connect with potential partners and investors.
