Iceaddis, Ethiopia’s first innovation hub and tech startup incubator, was established in 2011. As a co-creation space, it accelerates high-potential startups, fosters technological innovations, and activates youth economic empowerment through a multi-partnership approach. The philosophy of Iceaddis emphasizes the power of individuals to transform their local environments and gain economic independence. By supporting startup founders and organizations, Iceaddis nurtures Ethiopia's young tech community, promoting innovation and entrepreneurship. Iceaddis facilitates creative potential, tests unconventional ideas, and experiments with prototypes to achieve product-market fit and solve complex problems. Offering a collaborative space for exchange, work, and support, Iceaddis connects young startup founders to talent, skills, and capital while integrating with the broader Iceaddis community. Corporates, educational institutions, government organizations, NGOs, and local companies join Iceaddis' creative community to generate and implement new ideas and develop and test projects.
