Why We Exist
In the world's race toward the future, over 15 million entrepreneurs and students in rural and township areas have been left behind. They have the ideas. The drive. The vision. But not the tools. We created DEI HUB to flip that reality. To deliver AI-powered business tools and next-gen education where the market has historically been ignored. We don’t just want to bridge the digital divide — we want to turn it into a launchpad.
Who We Are
The Digital Economy Innovation Hub is a modern support system designed to open real opportunities in South Africa’s townships, rural, and semi-rural areas. We combine practical digital education, AI-powered tools, and virtual environments to help young people learn, grow, and earn in the digital economy. Our work extends beyond learning — we also offer business support, mentorship, and incubation to help local entrepreneurs turn ideas into sustainable businesses. Whether it’s a student needing extra academic help or a startup needing guidance to scale, we provide a trusted, accessible platform for real progress.
