Des éco-carburants aux plateformes numériques, en passant par des chaussures perlées et des solutions agri-tech, la créativité affichée était vraiment inspirante. Cinq lauréats par catégorie ont chacun reçu 1 000 000 FCFA ou plus, tandis que 16 autres ont été reconnus dans le cadre de nos composantes EST et MSE.

C'est cela, l'autonomisation des jeunes. Fiers de chaque participant ! 🙌

In Cameroon's West Region, the Mushroom Common Initiative Group once relied on slow, artisanal methods that kept growth out of reach. That changed when they entered the 𝐆𝐇𝐒𝐒 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞 (𝐑𝐘𝐈𝐂) — and won.

💡 With a 𝟑,𝟎𝟎𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐂𝐅𝐀 𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 under the Education and Economic Empowerment Project (E-E-E-P), funded by the Mastercard Foundation, the group invested in an industrial mixer that transformed their operations — boosting production, improving quality, cutting losses, and opening doors to supermarket contracts.

Their team has grown from 6 to 𝟖 𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟏𝟔 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬, and they've launched exciting new products including mushroom wine, mushroom-enriched chocolates, and breaded mushrooms — now reaching consumers across Bafoussam through mobile kiosks.
