The highly anticipated third season of The Journey, Anzisha’s acclaimed YouTube documentary series, is set to spotlight 30 of Africa’s youngest entrepreneurs—offering an unfiltered look into the passion, persistence, and innovation driving small businesses across the continent.
Aged between 15 and 22, these young visionaries hail from countries including Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Egypt, Ghana, Uganda, Benin, Zambia, Madagascar, DR Congo, and Senegal. Their ventures span diverse industries—from agriculture and logistics to tech, food processing, and personal care—highlighting the next generation of African enterprise.
This season, culminating in a high-stakes pitch competition in Johannesburg, will award $40,000 in prizes to the most promising ventures. It’s a defining moment for these founders, as they refine their strategies, validate two years of progress, and pitch for funding that could transform their futures.
Season 3 promises to surpass its predecessor—which attracted over 1.13 million views—by delivering even deeper insights. Audiences will witness these entrepreneurs navigate real-world challenges: from operational hurdles and market pivots to moments of leadership and community impact.
According to Anzisha Managing Director, Didi Onwu, “Season 3 is more than just a series; it’s a window into the future of African enterprise. These entrepreneurs are not only building businesses but also reshaping their communities through resilience and innovation.”
Through compelling storytelling, The Journey captures the heart of entrepreneurship in emerging markets—where vision meets execution, and ambition is driven by purpose. This season offers a rare, candid look at the realities of building impactful businesses in Africa and the evolving entrepreneurial landscape powering the continent’s growth.
