About this round
iAccelerator Phase 7 final pitching and award ceremony, Kigali Convention Centre, Friday 11 Sep 2026; six winners chosen from 15 finalists, each awarded Rwf 10,000,000 non-dilutive seed funding plus six months of training and mentorship. The New Times gives no USD figure; converted at 1 USD ~ 1,450 RWF = ~USD 6,900 (Business Tech Africa puts the Rwf 60M total at 'about $50,000', i.e. ~$8,300 each, a looser conversion). Programme run by Imbuto Foundation with partners UNFPA Rwanda, Ministry of Youth and Arts and Friends of Imbuto (programme page / Business Tech Africa); The New Times names no co-funder, so only Imbuto Foundation is recorded as investor. Winner: Street Haven. Runs school outreaches, distributes sanitary pads and teaches menstrual health; award funds pad dispensers, logistics and outreach targeting at least 50 schools and more than 30,000 girls.
