Intel announced the launch of the second edition of its Africa-focused AI and broadband program on Tuesday. The Intel Community Reach Program (ICRP) initiative aims to promote digital inclusion and support innovative projects that use AI and broadband to improve sectors like education, healthcare, agriculture, and financial services in underserved African communities.

Focus and goals

The program seeks to bridge Africa’s digital divide, where internet access is only 38 percent, much lower than the global average of 68 percent. It invites startups, SMEs, organisations, and universities to propose AI- and broadband-based projects.

Special emphasis is placed on empowering women tech entrepreneurs and fostering inclusive technological growth.

Participants will receive technical support, capacity building, and consultancy services to help scale their solutions and create social and economic impacts.

Partnerships and broader impact

This effort builds on previous collaborations, including a partnership with AfriLabs, to expand STEM education and innovation. Additionally, Intel is working with the African Development Bank to train 3 million Africans and 30,000 government officials in AI skills, announced during the AfDB Annual Meetings in Nairobi.

This training aims to develop a skilled workforce capable of driving Africa’s participation in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

The program reflects Intel’s commitment to using AI and broadband technologies to foster growth and reduce disparities across Africa, ensuring communities are active contributors to the digital economy rather than just consumers. Applications for the program are open until June 13, 2025, to create a more connected and innovative continent.
