About

The Shed is Africa's Opportunity Infrastructure.

Africa does not suffer from a lack of talent. It suffers from fragmented opportunities. The Shed exists to connect talent, knowledge, capital and institutions through trusted intelligence — starting with one physical space in Kigali, because someone had to stop waiting for the panel discussion to fix it.

We are not a coworking space, an incubator, a training centre or an AI company. We are all of these working together: a physical Shed, a digital operating system (SHED OS), and an intelligence layer (SHED IQ) that helps every member discover opportunities they would never have found alone.

How to join

  1. Create your account and Opportunity Passport.
  2. Select the roles that describe you today — you can add more later.
  3. Book your first desk, session or rental, or simply explore the community.
