About Llama Impact Accelerator Program (Senegal Track)
Meta's Llama Impact Accelerator, running from May to November 2025, includes an in-country AI accelerator track in Senegal as part of a Sub-Saharan Africa-wide initiative to accelerate the development of impactful, open-source AI solutions. The programme offers equity-free funding, technical training, hands-on mentorship, business advisory support, and connections to local policy ecosystems for Senegalese startups leveraging Llama models. This initiative positions Senegal as one of four key African countries selected for the programme, alongside South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya.
