The contest will now accept applications until 15th September 2025. This extension comes in response to growing interest and requests from startups who needed additional time to finalize their submissions.
The Tangira Startup TV Contest is Rwanda's maiden startup TV Contest designed to empower young entrepreneurs with mentorship and most importantly a platform to showcase their ideas to a wider audience, while they also win cash prizes that will help them grow and scale their businesses.
Speaking on the extension, the organizing team described it as an oportunity for more startups to prepare strong applications and join the 'exciting journey'.
'We are inviting entrepreneurs that have been left out in so many projects like this due to language barriers. This time round we have our own Kinyarwanda StartUp Contest where all sectors are invited to participate and also women are encouraged to showcase in our local language,' said Remmygious Lubega the executive producer of the show and CEO of RG-Consult Inc, the curators of this project.
Interested entrepreneurs are encouraged to apply through the official website www.tangira.rw and take advantage of this extended opportunity or simply click on this link for the application form.
With the extended deadline, organizers hope to see even more innovative ideas and ambitious projects from across the country where outstanding startups will win over Frw 10m cash prize and so much visibility and great opportunities to scale their businesses.
