About TAC Early Stage Infrastructure Activator

Africa's Infrastructure Ecosystem Platform.

Making Early Stage Infrastructure happen with Capacity Building, Investment Readiness and Ecosystem Building.

01 Our mission

Making Early Stage Infrastructure happen with Capacity Building, Investment Readiness and Ecosystem Building.

The African Catalyst is an Early Stage Infrastructure Activator. We are focused on accelerating early-stage investments in infrastructure across Africa through three pillars: Capacity Building, Investment Readiness, and Ecosystem Development.

02 Our approach

We aim to do this through our various research and knowledge-based events and activities. As the word “catalyst” implies, we hope to speed up the rate of infrastructure development in Africa.

03 What we do

Capacity Building

Training and fellowship programmes for infrastructure developers, public-sector facilitators, institutional capital providers, and women infrapreneurs — live cohorts and self-paced on-demand courses

Investment Readiness

InfraLAB — a structured, three-stage incubation process that takes a project from concept to investment-ready, across six sector pathways

Ecosystem Development

The TAC Network — connecting Project Developers, Project Enablers and Capital Providers, plus our events calendar (InfraConnect, EESII, InfraPITCH)

04 One connected ecosystem

Prepare. Connect. Engage.

InfraLAB
