22 On Sloane is proud to announce the launch of KUMii, an AI-powered ecosystem digital platform designed to connect, equip and accelerate Africa’s MSMEs and startups.
Launched at Global Entrepreneurship Congress Africa (GEC+Africa) 2026, KUMii brings together entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers, mentors, service providers and ecosystem partners on a single digital platform.
KUMii is designed to strengthen the entrepreneurship ecosystem by connecting businesses to the capital, markets, knowledge, expertise, tools and opportunities they need to build, grow and scale.
What Kumii Offers:
Already Connecting Africa’s Entrepreneurs
Kumii has already registered more than 4000 startups and MSMEs, demonstrating the growing demand for a more connected and accessible digital entrepreneurship ecosystem.
Rather than creating another standalone programme, KUMii functions as connective digital infrastructure for the entrepreneurship ecosystem – enabling existing initiatives, organisations and opportunities to work better together while providing MSMEs with a single point of access to the resources and connections they need.
Why Launch Kumii at GEC+Africa?
The launch of KUMii at GEC+Africa 2026 is strategic. GEC+Africa brings together the very ecosystem that KUMii is designed to connect.
From investment and market access to mentorship, learning and business support, KUMii takes the connections and opportunities championed by GEC+Africa and extends them into a digital ecosystem that entrepreneurs can access beyond the congress.
KUMii is more than a platform. It is the digital infrastructure connecting Africa’s entrepreneurship ecosystem.
