The Arise Intelligence Research Institute is a movement for sustainable progress, blending data-driven research, venture creation, and people-powered collaboration to shape a prosperous Africa.
The Arise Intelligence Research Institute (AIRI), an initiative of Arise Capital Management Foundation, is Africa’s bold response to systemic challenges. We bring together researchers, founders, volunteers, and investors to tackle pressing socio-economic issues and build scalable solutions that deliver both financial and social impact.
AIRI is more than a program — it’s a movement of people and ideas transforming Africa’s future.
We dream of an Africa that is self-sustaining and self-powered — a continent that no longer exports its brightest minds out of necessity, but nurtures them at home to solve problems, build industries, and create opportunity.
Our mission is to empower Africans — researchers, founders, volunteers, and investors — to turn today’s challenges into tomorrow’s opportunities. Together, we are building a continent where knowledge creates progress and innovation drives equity.
