The Virtual Meetup Grant is a part of the AfriLabs Hubs Learning Week under the AfriLabs Capacity Building Programme (ACBP). The ACBP is a 36-month intensive capacity building program designed by AfriLabs for African tech hubs to improve their capacity to support the growing number of startups and MSMEs in their communities across Africa. It is supported by the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) through the Digital Africa seed fund.
