Five years of building with Africa’s boldest builders.

From programs to a home for builders.

Startinev launched in 2020, organising hackathons, corporate innovation challenges and startup programs across Africa. Through 400+ events and 5,450+ founders, one thing kept coming up. People needed more than a program. They needed a place, a daily environment where the work actually happens.

So we built Hackhouse, a permanent space where everything we learned running Startinev comes together: coworking, community, structured programs, and access to resources and networks. All under one roof at 124 Manyani East Road, Nairobi.
