After several weeks of learning, collaboration, mentoring and pitching, the Innovation Sprint, the big first step of Trampoline’s venture clienting programme is officially over.

Rather than asking entrepreneurs to develop solutions in isolation and search for a market afterwards, we invited them to respond directly to real business challenges brought forward by our corporate partners, Emtel Ltd and Quality Beverages Ltd (QBL), focusing on e-waste and plastic waste.

From an initial cohort of 25 selected startups, 21 successfully completed the Innovation Sprint, developing business plans and refining their proposed solutions in response to the operational realities of our corporate partners.

Throughout the Sprint, founders benefited from expert insights, individual business coaching and direct engagement with corporate decision-makers. Beyond strengthening their business cases, the experience helped them better understand local market dynamics, refine their value propositions and develop more structured proposals.

For Trampoline, the Sprint was equally valuable. It provided an opportunity to explore what happens when corporates and innovative entrepreneurs are brought into the same room. These learnings reinforce our conviction that venture clienting can create more effective pathways between startups and established businesses, bringing innovation closer to real-world implementation.

🤝 A collective effort made this possible.

Our sincere thanks to Emtel Ltd and Quality Beverages Ltd for opening their doors to entrepreneurs, sharing their operational challenges and actively engaging throughout the process.

We are equally grateful to our expert contributors Anya Dundoo, Dr. Drishtysingh Ramdenee, Victoria Fauve Desvaux, Florian Marchadour, SĂ©bastien Mallart and Boussoura Talla for sharing valuable insights into the challenges, opportunities and realities of the circular economy.

A special thank you to our business coaches Micael Noguero Kwik, Avinash Rugoobur, James van der Westhuizen, Prakash Ramiah and Cedric Vettero, whose guidance helped founders strengthen their business cases, financial models and pitches.

We also acknowledge the contributions of Arif Currimjee and Vimal Seeboruth, alongside our coaches and selection committee members, for their involvement in the programme's design, assessment and selection processes.

And above all, thank you to every founder who took part in this journey. Your commitment and openness to devise your solutions to real business needs were at the heart of this Sprint.

Innovation works best when it starts with a real problem.

As part of Jumpstart, Emtel has helped explore a different way of connecting corporates and startups — one grounded in real business challenges and practical solutions.

Rather than asking entrepreneurs to search independently for problems to solve, Jumpstart takes a venture-clienting approach: corporate partners identify challenges upfront, and selected startups work on solutions with practical relevance and potential for scale.

For Emtel, this means looking beyond e-waste collection and recycling to explore new ways of managing electronic waste and unlocking its potential within a more circular economy.

Here’s what Shivendra Nautiyal, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Emtel, had to say on why they chose to join the programme as a corporate partner:
“As a telecom operator that has been actively driving e-waste recycling in Mauritius for years now, we saw Jumpstart as a natural next step, moving beyond collection to co-create solutions with real entrepreneurs. It reflects Emtel's commitment to enabling innovation, turning e-waste into opportunity, and building a stronger, circular economy for Mauritius.”

We extend our sincere thanks to Emtel for its commitment to Jumpstart and for helping create meaningful connections between startups and real-world challenges.

Over the last five years, Trampoline has played an active role as a business incubator in helping early-stage startups launch, grow and build the foundations they need to succeed in the Mauritian ecosystem.

This is why we were proud to partner up with Investec Bank Mauritius for the Dazzle’s Den competition, a platform aimed at supporting impactful projects and the entrepreneurs behind them. Opportunities like Dazzle’s Den are vital to advancing innovation in Mauritius, giving promising projects access to visibility, mentorship and opportunities to take their solutions further.

“Supporting entrepreneurs who are building viable, scalable and impactful businesses is at the heart of what we do at Trampoline. Throughout Dazzle’s Den, we worked closely with the shortlisted finalists during the dry run, helping them sharpen their pitches, clarify their value propositions and communicate their impact. It was inspiring to see the quality and diversity of the businesses, as well as the entrepreneurs’ openness to feedback. And of course, the journey doesn’t end here. We look forward to continuing to support the winners - and the top 10 applicants too - through mentorship as they take their businesses to the next stage”, said Antish Aubeelock, Innovation and Partnerships Lead at Trampoline.

We would like to thank the Investec Bank Mauritius team for their trust and congratulate all 10 shortlisted candidates, with particular congratulations to Henrage Brothers Nursery, Living Change Aged Care and Enable Moris – three promising projects tackling concrete challenges in areas such as public health, food security and creating a more inclusive culture for people with disabilities in the workplace.

The Innovation Sprint, the first phase of the Jumpstart program, proudly supported by MCB Group, has come to a close.

Bringing together entrepreneurs from across the continent, the Sprint was designed to help participants strengthen and refine their solutions to environmental challenges such as e-waste and plastic pollution, while preparing them for potential venture client collaborations with organisations seeking innovative and scalable solutions.

Here’s what Anne-Claire Antoinette, Sustainability Lead at MCB, had to say about the Innovation Sprint and our partnership:

“Initiatives like the Innovation Sprint, which are part of the wider Jumpstart programme, are essential. They bring people together to challenge perspectives and develop practical solutions to e-waste and plastic pollution, reminding us that progress can only be achieved through collective effort and shared action.”

Over the course of the Innovation Sprint, participants explored practical responses to these challenges, testing ideas, challenging assumptions, and shaping solutions with real potential for scale. The process highlighted the power of collaboration, and the importance of creating spaces where innovation can be grounded in real-world sustainability needs.

We extend our sincere thanks to MCB for its support and commitment in enabling this platform for impact-driven entrepreneurship — helping turn shared ideas into tangible pathways towards more circular and resilient systems.

Innovation works best when startups and industry build together.

That’s precisely why we launched the Jumpstart program a few weeks ago. 🚀

25 selected ventures from across Africa are currently working alongside corporate partners, business coaches, and sector experts to transform business challenges into pilot-ready solutions focused on e-waste and plastic waste. ♻️

What makes this approach different is that the collaboration starts early. Instead of building in isolation and searching for a market later, startups are engaging directly with organisations facing real operational challenges today.

🤝 By creating these connections from the outset, we can accelerate validation, strengthen implementation potential, and help promising ideas move faster toward real-world impact.

A big thank you to our corporate partners, Emtel and Quality Beverages for opening their doors to innovation and collaborating with entrepreneurs willing to tackle complex challenges head-on.

We’re also grateful to MCB Group for supporting the Innovation Sprint and contributing to a stronger innovation ecosystem in Mauritius. 🌍

This is just the start of the journey — and we’re excited to see what emerges from the collaboration ahead.

What if waste wasn’t just a problem… but a starting point?

At Trampoline, we believe that some of the most impactful innovations come from rethinking challenges like e-waste and plastic pollution.

We asked one of our innovative entrepreneurs to share his journey 👇

👉 Here’s what Mujahid Emambokus, founder of Morivert, had to say:
“Morivert started with a simple idea of transforming paper waste into pencils. What began as a small initiative has shown us that waste is not just a problem — it is an opportunity for innovation and impact. Programs like Jumpstart are essential today because they empower entrepreneurs to turn challenges like e-waste and plastic pollution into sustainable solutions. If you have an idea that can transform waste into value, this is the right platform to start and grow.”

Jumpstart is here to help you turn solutions into real, testable models — with the right support and partners.

♻️ Working on e-waste or plastic waste solutions? This is your moment.

Entreprendre, c’est souvent partir d’un besoin identifié, le confronter au terrain, affiner son approche… et construire progressivement une réponse viable.

Mais une question reste centrale :
👉 comment accéder rapidement à un premier client, tester en conditions réelles, et valider son modèle ?

C’est là que Jumpstart fait la différence.

Nous avons demandé à nos incubés de partager leur expérience 👇

👉 Gaëlle Schluchter nous en parle :

“Le programme Jumpstart est révolutionnaire ! Trampoline inverse la tendance qui en principe veut qu'une start-up se développe à partir d'une simple idée et réussisse à répondre à une demande du marché. En répondant à l'offre de Jumpstart, les candidats sont assurés de la demande et ils reçoivent la garantie d'avoir leur premier client/contrat.

Si vous êtes entrepreneurs en économie circulaire et que vous pensez avoir une solution, n'hésitez pas à candidater pour le programme Jumpstart. Trampoline possède l'expertise et le réseau pour développer votre start-up. C'est le meilleur coup de pouce qu'on puisse avoir en tant qu'entrepreneur, parole d'incubée.”

Avec Jumpstart, vous ne cherchez pas votre premier client — vous le rencontrez dès le départ.

♻️ Entrepreneurs de l’économie circulaire, c’est votre opportunité.

Entreprendre, ce n’est pas seulement avoir une bonne idée.

C’est aussi savoir identifier un vrai besoin… et surtout trouver les bons partenaires pour avancer.

Dans le cadre de Jumpstart, nous avons donné la parole à celles et ceux qui sont déjà passés par nos programmes d’incubation et d’accéleration.

👉 Voici ce que partage Sylvia Landez, co-fondatrice de Reboot :
“Adresser un besoin identifié et trouver les partenaires qui vous font confiance, c'est déjà 50% du chemin quand on entreprend. Jumpstart est là pour ça. Vous faire gagner une étape et vous lancer plus sereinement dans l'aventure.”

Avec Jumpstart, vous ne partez pas de zéro.

Vous avancez avec un cadre, des partenaires, et des opportunités concrètes pour tester et développer votre solution.
