This quarter, Orbit didn’t just grow, we listened, built, and questioned what real inclusion looks like.
From signing a milestone agreement to digitize health payments with the Ministry of Health, to spotlighting young entrepreneurs across Ethiopia, to asking hard questions about access, especially for young women, we’ve stayed rooted in purpose.
We explored AI in healthcare, celebrated bold ventures through SEED, unpacked MSME struggles in rural markets, and brought new energy to agritech.
It’s been a season of quiet shifts and big steps. Click the link to read the full story:https://bit.ly/3Hfz2Ti

Through candid panel discussions and hands-on think tank sessions, one message stood out: real change starts with inclusive, grounded solutions. These communities are rich with potential, and we’re honored to walk alongside them as they lead the way forward.
