About us
Kosmos Innovation Center (KIC) is a non-profit organization that invests in young entrepreneurs and small businesses. We empower entrepreneurs to turn their ideas into viable, self-sustaining businesses and we work alongside promising small businesses to help them scale and reach their full potential. At KIC, we are committed to increasing awareness of agricultural opportunities and the associated entrepreneurial benefits for the youth. To achieve this, we have rolled out a series of programs and projects to reach and support them at each level of their growth. The KIC projects are structured to provide support to youth, ranging from high school students to medium-scale business owners. Since our inception in 2016, more than 18,000 young leaders have been trained in business skills and entrepreneurship through participation in our programs. Kosmos Innovation Center is an independent organization, and its policies, operations, and program decisions are determined by its own Board of Directors and senior leadership team.
