Wajenzi Diaspora Investment Platform Alain Nkurikiye wins EUR 17,500 to Jumpstart his Business Idea

January 17, 2019

Alain Nkurikiye was born in Burundi and graduated with his Economics degree in the Netherlands. At the highly-anticipated Big Improvement Day (BID) 2019, he achieved the first step of his dream to launch a diaspora investment platform called Wajenzi. Through a competition organized by the Municipality of The Hague, he was able to garner the publics’ prize (E2,500) as well as the main prize in his category (E15,000). With a clear goal in his mind, he will use the prize to pilot his platform in Ghana. Over the past year, Alain worked on a consultancy-based contract at IOM The Netherlands to conduct a diaspora mapping of Rwandans in the Netherlands. As IOM NL, we would like to congratulate Alain on his achievements and wish him good luck with his future endeavors.
