Who We Are
ITAfrica is a non-profit tech organisation founded by The INNOVATECH GROUP. Conceptualised in 2022, INNOVATECH has dedicated the past two years to extensive research and development on the ITAfrica platform, training courses, community outreach strategies, and structuring the financial model to ensure a sustainable future for this initiative.
Our Mission
With a core focus on previously disadvantaged individuals and communities, our mission is simple: to bring technology opportunities and skills development to those who need it most. From providing technology infrastructure and accessibility to delivering skills development and training, we aim to empower, equip, and create job opportunities in the rapidly growing business technology sector.
The Challenge We Face
South Africa has one of the highest unemployment rates globally, and across Africa, millions of unemployed youths and adults suffer from a lack of education and skills development due to geographical and economic constraints. These ‘Third-world’ countries are often seen as under-developed, with limited resources, finances, and infrastructure needed to grow their economies and improve national employment rates. However, the situation is improving as countries like South Africa, Nigeria, Mozambique, Namibia, Botswana, and even Madagascar experience the benefits of fiber internet and sustainable connectivity.
The Opportunity for Change
Despite the challenges, there is still hope. We believe that, with the right resources and support, we can overcome these obstacles. Our goal is to harness the power of technology to uplift communities, grow economies, and secure a brighter future for all. ITAfrica is here to make that change happen, starting with those who need it most.
