Incubation

The Need

Africa faces pressing challenges — from health inequities and climate impacts to food security and youth employment. Many of the most promising solutions are conceived locally, yet too often they fail to grow because they lack the support needed to scale.

What SITU Offers

SITU provides program incubation and fiscal sponsorship that gives new initiatives the space and backing to grow. We help develop program foundations so innovators can focus on their ideas and impact. Our incubation work spans:

  • Hosting and nurturing catalytic programs through fiscal sponsorship.
  • Providing relevant strategic and specialist expertise supporting programs.
  • Providing fiduciary and compliance oversight to ensure donor trust.
  • Offering strategic communications and branding support to position initiatives effectively.

Through incubation, we turn bold African ideas into stable, investible initiatives ready to deliver system-level change.
