For about six years, the Patoranking foundation, a non-profit organization has been committed to empowering young Africans and expanding excellence through education. Exceptional leaders and change-makers can come from anywhere. Financial constraints should not prevent the next great African disruptor from gaining the tools, skillsets, and networks to bring their innovations to life.

Having overcome financial adversity in his own journey of impact, Patoranking has been using his platform to unleash more entrepreneurial leaders who will bring positive change to their countries and the continent.

Through research and advocacy, the Patoranking foundation enables the most promising young leaders from across the continent to study at some of the continent’s best schools and Africa’s most innovative universities, whatever their financial resources or background.
