Sandbox Africa is a solution studio and marketplace, designed to bridge the commercialization gap for small and medium-sized tech solution providers in Africa.
A significant commercialization gap exists for small and medium-sized tech solution providers. These companies struggle with market access, operational management, and monetizing their products on a scalable SaaS model.
Sandbox Africa was created to fill this gap. We are an all-in-one platform that streamlines the entire commercialization process, allowing tech innovators to focus on what they do best: building great solutions. Our goal is to connect high-potential startups with the customers they need to thrive and grow.
The high cost and complexity of building a direct sales team or integrating with major cloud marketplaces prevents small tech companies from reaching a broad customer base.
Startups waste valuable resources on manual invoicing, contract management, and payment reconciliation, instead of focusing on product innovation.
The shift from project-based work to a scalable SaaS model is technically challenging, making it difficult to achieve predictable, recurring revenue.
Commercialization Engine
Sandbox Africa streamlines the entire business-to-business (B2B) software commercialization process. Its functionality is best understood through a three-part framework: Discover, Design, and Deal.
Sandbox Africa intelligently connects buyers and vendors. The platform provides vendors with a digital storefront to showcase their innovative technology solutions, effectively solving the significant challenge of limited market access. This allows them to reach a broad customer base without the high cost and complexity of a direct sales team. For buyers, the platform acts as an AI-powered solution finder. By leveraging intelligent algorithms, it matches a buyer's specific business challenges with the most relevant and vetted solutions on the marketplace, ensuring they find a perfect and efficient fit.
Sandbox Africa provides a collaborative space for building and refining solutions. The platform provides vendors with a dedicated solution studio and tools to enhance their market readiness. It assists with due diligence and offers business education, mentorship, and market readiness assessments to help innovators accelerate their growth. For buyers, the integrated dealroom and collaboration tools create a secure and confidential environment for seamless interactions with solution providers, enabling them to negotiate, exchange documents, and manage projects in a single, trusted space.
