Rome, 5th of July 2022 – RES4Africa Foundation is a strong advocate of the youth’s role in Africa’s energy transition: the continent’s young generations can offer groundbreaking solutions to the issues currently affecting the African energy and environmental sector, creating an unprecedented impact in terms of innovation, climate resilience and social change.
That’s why, in collaboration with Enel Green Power and the European Investment Bank (EIB), RES4Africa is currently holding the third edition of the MGA Young Talent of the Year Award, aiming at supporting African youth’s start-ups, projects and entrepreneurial ideas with financial aid and visibility.
In this broader framework, the Foundation will virtually host the Public Competition for Finalists, on the 22nd of July 2022. The contest will see 6-8 finalists of the MGA Award 2022 publicly presenting their project ideas, with the presence of the entities supporting the Award (Enel Green Power and the European Investment Bank). After the gathering, a final round of evaluations will lead to the identification of the 3 winners, who will be presented by the end of the year.
