As we usher in 2025, we reflect on an incredible year of growth, collaboration, and creativity – and look forward to an even more impactful year ahead. Kwathu Kollective has solidified its place as the leading hub for Africa’s innovators, creators, and entrepreneurs. This year, we’re taking our mission to new heights with exciting plans for expansion, partnerships, and deeper community engagement.

We’re officially here. What began as Ntha Foundation – a movement built on empowering young creatives and driving innovation – has now evolved into the Kwathu Kollective.

The Ntha Foundation and Kwathu Kollective are participating in the Youth Connekt 2024 Summit in Rwanda, focusing on youth empowerment through innovative skilling. Founder Nthanda Manduwi will present a keynote on sustainable skilling and bridging the education-employment gap, while the organizations seek collaborations to drive youth-led development initiatives across Africa.

The Kwathu Kollective envisions becoming Africa’s leading network for creativity and innovation, uniting pioneers from startups, tech, and corporate sectors to drive meaningful impact. We share with you how we plan to do it; and how you can get involved.
