FUNGUO Innovation Programme has officially launched its 4th Call for Funding Applications! 

Programme Background

The FUNGUO Innovation Programme is a multi-partner initiative designed to unlock the potential of impact-driven startups and innovative micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Tanzania. It does so through catalytic funding, technical assistance, and ecosystem strengthening.

Co-funded by the European Union, the British Government (FCDO), and the Republic of Finland, and implemented by UNDP Tanzania, the Programme works in partnership with other ecosystem players, including enterprise support organizations such as ANZA, StartHub Africa, and WSHA, as well as government partners, including COSTECH and others.

FUNGUO aligns closely with the national development agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), aiming to increase the number of successfully scaled startups and MSMEs that deliver inclusive social and environmental impact alongside commercial returns.

FUNGUO particularly seeks to fill the funding gap in the “missing middle”—where many promising startups and MSMEs struggle to access appropriate early- to growth-stage finance. By offering catalytic funding and tailored support, the Programme aims to:

● Build a viable pipeline of high-potential businesses for follow-on funding by larger institutional and impact investors.
● Strengthen the innovation ecosystem in Tanzania by working collaboratively with other accelerators, incubators, financiers, and government institutions.

----------
Startups and innovative MSMEs in Tanzania are invited to apply for catalytic grant funding of up to TZS 100 million, along with tailored technical assistance and access to investment and networking opportunities.

🗓️ Application Deadline: 19 July 2025 (23:59 EAT)
