Celo Camp Batch 10 – Powering Ghana's Web3 Innovation

The Celo Camp Batch 10 accelerator program, a flagship initiative by the Celo Foundation and Upright Ventures, is set to catalyze Ghana’s blockchain ecosystem. With applications open until August 15, 2025, this 8-week virtual program, running from September 8 to October 31, 2025, and culminating in a Demo Day on October 29, invites developers, entrepreneurs, and innovators to build scalable Web3 solutions on the Celo blockchain. Focused on fostering inclusive financial systems, Celo Camp offers a unique opportunity for African talent to drive global impact.

The program’s track record speaks volumes. Past cohorts have delivered tangible results: Batch 8 saw 17 teams from six countries leverage MiniPay, Celo’s self-custodial stablecoin wallet, while Batch 9 alumni secured over $230 million in funding. Collectively, earlier participants have facilitated $1 billion in transactions on the Celo network, bolstered by $25,000 equity-free grants and accelerated investment opportunities. Success stories like AgriUT’s Mark Tsang credit the program’s mentorship and community for transforming concepts into thriving ventures.

Eligibility is inclusive, targeting individuals and teams passionate about blockchain solutions, particularly those addressing Africa’s financial inclusion challenges. Applicants can register via the official Celo Camp website (https://www.celocamp.com/) before the August 15 deadline, with selected participants announced on September 4. Benefits include access to an investment pool of up to $100,000 for top teams, expert mentorship from Web3 pioneers, and exclusive perks from global partners to enhance project development and scalability.

Celo Africa’s recent milestones highlight its growing influence. In Q3 2024, the Celo Africa DAO reported a 195% surge in daily active addresses to 290,000, driven by initiatives like the Africa Web3 Fund. Partnerships with Unicorn Growth Capital and EchoVC have fueled startup growth, while MiniPay’s mobile-first approach has accelerated Web3 adoption across Kenya, Nigeria, and beyond, cementing Celo’s role in bridging Africa’s digital divide.
