Africa’s young entrepreneurs in agribusiness have another shot at securing funding and global recognition as the 2025 GoGettaz Agripreneur Prize Competition opens applications. 

With a prize pool of $160,000, this initiative seeks the most promising agri-food innovators aged 18 to 35 who are driving food security, sustainability, and economic growth across the continent.

The competition, now in its seventh edition, offers funding, mentorship, networking, and exposure to help agripreneurs scale their ventures. 

Finalists will pitch their businesses live at the Africa Food Systems Forum (AFSF) in Dakar, Senegal, from 31 August to 5 September 2025.

Two grand prize winners—one male and one female entrepreneur—will each receive $50,000. An additional $60,000 in Impact Awards will go to businesses excelling in areas such as climate resilience, technology, gender equity, food security, and job creation.

Why This Matters

Africa is at a crossroads. With its high and continuously growing population, as well as food insecurity, young entrepreneurs are stepping up with innovative agribusiness solutions. 

However, lack of funding, mentorship, and infrastructure is still a huge challenge. The GoGettaz Prize aims to bridge this gap by investing in businesses that have the potential to boost the agricultural sector and create employment opportunities.

“I am continually amazed by the ingenuity and determination of the young entrepreneurs we meet through the GoGettaz Agripreneur Prize Competition each year,” said Svein Tore Holsether, president and CEO of Yara International.

“Their ability to leverage technology and innovative business models showcases the immense potential of the agrifood sector and the pivotal role of entrepreneurship in sustainable development.”

Who Can Apply?

To qualify, applicants must:
✔️ Be between 18 and 35 years old at the time of submission.
✔️ Be citizens of an African Union member country.
✔️ Be founders or co-founders of a legally registered agribusiness in Africa.
✔️ Ensure their business is registered by 10 June 2025.

The competition welcomes businesses from across the entire agrifood value chain—from farm innovations and agri-tech to food processing and distribution.

How to Apply

GoGettaz Agripreneur Prize 2025 is a launchpad for young agripreneurs to gain funding, connect with investors, and expand their businesses across Africa. Past winners have used the platform to attract more investment, build strategic partnerships, and create jobs.

Strive Masiyiwa, founder of Econet Group, commented: “They aren’t waiting around for the perfect conditions; they are seizing the moment and embracing technology to revolutionize the agrifood industry across the continent.”

If you have a great agribusiness idea, this is your opportunity. Apply before the deadline on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, and take your business to the next level!
