Today marks a significant milestone in our journey. We are officially launching Forge Intellitech — not just as a technology company, but as a movement to transform how technology serves Africa.

The Question That Started It All

What if technology truly understood Africa? Not adapted solutions from elsewhere. Not localized versions of foreign products. But technology built from the ground up by those who understand the unique challenges, opportunities, and realities of our continent.

This question has driven us from day one, and it continues to guide every decision we make.

Why We're Building Forge

For too long, Africa has been on the receiving end of technology. Solutions designed in distant boardrooms by people who've never experienced our realities. Products that work perfectly in stable power grids and high-speed internet environments, but struggle in our markets.

We believe Africa deserves better. We believe the best solutions for African problems will come from African minds. And we're building the company to prove it.

What We're Building

Forge Intellitech is building a suite of products that address critical gaps in African infrastructure:

  • TechUp — Digital skills education for secondary schools
  • LaunchPad — Youth entrepreneurship and innovation program
  • BiteBank — Food security and vendor connectivity platform
  • Trego — Cross-border trade simplification

Each product is designed with African realities at its core — not as an afterthought.

Join the Movement

We're just getting started, and we want you to be part of this journey. Whether you're a potential partner, investor, or simply someone who believes in Africa's potential — we'd love to connect.

The future of African technology is being written now. Let's write it together.
