The 2nd AfriAlliance Innovation Bridge Event in Cape Town is focused on fostering social innovation related to climate change and water in Africa.
This interactive, half-day event served as a matching platform for universities, science councils and companies in water and Climate Change with potential collaborators, funders and investors to facilitate commercialisation, awareness and better uptake of their innovations. Activities included innovation demonstrations, one-on-one meeting opportunities, plenary discussions and policy dialogues and addressed the different dimensions of social innovation (technology, capacity development, governance structures and business roadmap).
