Building Sustainable Industries for Africa’s Future
Sesame designs and delivers turnkey circular-economy industries that create meaningful social, environmental, and economic impact. We work across Sub-Saharan Africa to transform ideas into scalable industry models—empowering communities, regenerating ecosystems, and strengthening local economies.
Why We Exist
Africa’s Future Needs New Kinds of Industry
- 60%+ of Africa’s population will live in cities by 2050.
- Youth unemployment and informality remain structural challenges.
- Cities lack inclusive, sustainable, production-focused infrastructure.
- Climate vulnerability threatens livelihoods and economic stability.
Sesame fills this missing middle with industry incubation ecosystems that combine training, production, technology, and market access, enabling communities to create value locally and compete globally.
What We Do
We build turnkey, circular industries by working directly with communities, designing and activating sustainable solutions from the ground up.
- Circular Industry Systems — transforming waste into value.
- Innovation Infrastructure — hubs, makerspaces & production spaces.
- Product & Industry Development — from concept to manufacturing.
- Skills & Enterprise Activation — empowering youth & SMEs.
- Strategy → Implementation — we stay, build, and activate locally.
