The problems are in. Now it’s time to build.

For World Product Day 2026, Hadu x Innovate Africa Fund are calling on builders, thinkers, and creators to form teams and take on Africa’s most pressing challenges.

Pick a shortlisted problem, rally your team, and bring your solution to life. You’ll move fast through two sprint cycles and ship a tested, working prototype.

Teams will be judged on problem understanding, solution quality, execution, and prototype validation.

🏆 $2,000 prize for the strongest prototype 📅 Deadline: March 26, 2026 🚀 Hackathon: May 21, 2026

If you’re ready to build something real, this is your moment.
