I-NNOVA

About

Transforming communities,
empowering innovators

A technology company committed to building smart, innovative solutions that solve real world problems and transform communities.

I-NNOVA was founded in Bamenda in 2022, from a simple but powerful idea: Cameroon needs homegrown technology, and the talent to build it.

We work with institutions that cannot afford a system to go down, and we run an accelerator that turns people with no prior programming experience into working engineers. Both halves feed each other: the products give the programme real work, and the programme gives the products the people who build them.

Mission

To develop innovative, affordable and scalable technology tailored for Cameroon, while building a world-class tech talent pipeline through hands-on education and mentorship.

Vision

To become Africa's leading dual-mission tech company, recognised both for the quality of our software and the calibre of the developers we cultivate, from Bamenda to the world.

How we work

The way a project actually runs

  1. 01

    Understand the day

    We sit with the people who will use it before we design anything.

  2. 02

    Build in the open

    Short cycles, working software you can see, no long silences.

  3. 03

    Deploy and stay

    We run what we build, so a problem at 7am is our problem too.
