Building Sustainable Wealth From Talent Across Africa
Talent for Wealth Initiative is a Uganda-based social enterprise working to ensure young people in Africa turn skill and creativity into protected, income-generating assets. We address the widespread loss of value caused by weak ownership, unclear agreements, and unfair engagement by strengthening how talent is owned, protected, managed, and responsibly commercialized creating fair outcomes for individuals, organizations, and communities
What Guides Our Work
Everything we do is shaped by a clear sense of purpose and a long-term view of impact for individuals, organizations, and the communities around them.
Our Mission
To strengthen how talent and skill are owned, protected, managed, and commercially engaged, ensuring fair outcomes for individuals, responsible access for organizations, and sustainable value for communities.
Our Vision
A future where skill and talent are valued fairly, protected responsibly, and connected to opportunities that create lasting prosperity for individuals, organizations, and society.
Working with talent can take many forms. Sometimes it involves long-term roles and career paths; other times it centers on projects, releases, performances, collaborations, or specific opportunities. Our approach is designed to support talent and creativity wherever value is created, while remaining flexible to different engagement models.
Understand Talent & Context
We take time to understand the skill, creative output, or performance being offered, as well as the context in which it exists. This may include a project, body of work, engagement, or specific opportunity rather than a traditional career path.
Ownership & Terms
Before any engagement, we clarify ownership, rights, and expectations. As well as help in formalising them wherever need be. This ensures that talent retains control over the value they generate while all parties clearly understand how the work or skill will be used.
Engagement Readiness
We support readiness for engagement by aligning scope, timelines, compensation models, and ethical terms. This step helps create fair and workable arrangements suited to the nature of the opportunity.
Opportunity Connection
We connect talent to appropriate opportunities, including collaborations, outsourcing, licensing, partnerships, showcases, or market access.
Value & Continuity
After engagement, we focus on outcomes, learning, and continuity. This may include follow-on opportunities, improved positioning, or guidance on how talent can build on the value created over time.
Upcoming Events
Our upcoming events bring together talent, organizations, and partners to explore fair engagement, skill development, and sustainable opportunities across industries. Join us to learn, connect, and take part in conversations shaping the future of talent.

I got to realize my software is not just useful but highly valuable and could live on it solely even without ever selling actual product by being paid for my idea

My clothing line used to get copied a lot, yet I couldn't defend myself. Now I’ve got a trademark and making huge partnerships due to more trust and value.
