Saturday marked the first of many milestones in GEN Botswana’s 2026 Activity Calendar as we proudly hosted the GEC+ Africa Pitch Competition.

The event convened entrepreneurs, innovators, ecosystem builders, partners, and industry leaders from across the ecosystem to witness Botswana’s brightest founders pitch bold ideas with global potential.

More than just a competition, this was a celebration of innovation, collaboration, and the entrepreneurial spirit shaping Africa’s future.

One outstanding founder will now go on to represent Botswana on the global stage, carrying with them the ambition, creativity, and resilience of our entrepreneurial ecosystem.

To every founder who pitched, every partner who supported, every judge who contributed their expertise, and every attendee who showed up to believe in Botswana’s innovators: thank you.

This is only the beginning for 2026. 🇧🇼🌍

Sharing hard-earned insights with Botswana’s innovators at the GEC+ Africa Pitch. It’s one thing to have an idea — it’s another to hear from someone who’s built through the challenges and come out stronger.

Moments like this are why the room is packed.
