WHERE AMBITION MEETS ACTION

At 8B, we’re building a movement to unlock global opportunities for African talent. Whether you're a student on your journey abroad—or a partner who wants to fuel that journey—you belong here. Just tell us a little about yourself, and we’ll point you to the tools, resources, or contacts that matter most.

C. I’m a potential 8B partner — I’m an investor, university, lender, affiliate, or another mission-aligned partner → I’d like to connect with the 8B team to explore collaboration.
