Individual agency is when a person acts on his/her own behalf, whereas proxy agency is when an individual acts on behalf of someone else (such as an employer). Collective agency occurs when people act together, such as a social movement.

Business Incubation Management (BIM)

Currently operating in , Africa.

Most businesses in Africa tend to prematurely fail and negatively affect the socio-economic development of African countries. Business failure is not attributed to the lack of finance but the lack of appropriate business management skills.Training in business incubation management (BIM)on the African continent – called BIM Africa- is being promoted by the African Agribusiness Incubators Network (AAIN) based in Accra, Ghana.
African Agribusiness Incubators Network (AAIN) has been supporting innovative, impact-driven ventures throughout the entrepreneurial journey –from intention to impact at scale – for more than a decade. We have incubated and accelerated hundreds of impact-driven start-ups together with our partners.

Purpose and Objectives

The main purpose of such training is to reduce or even stop businesses prematurely discontinuing. The objectives are;

  • To promote African start-ups to become sustainable enterprises so that the enterprises contribute positively to the socio-economic development of African countries.
  • To link African start-ups to lucrative markets
  • To encourage the target group to get involved in BIM Africa

BIM Accreditation Structure

The design, development, and execution of the technical support activities are clustered into three business incubation process activities, namely pre-incubation, incubation, and post incubation. AAIN‘s BIM accreditation is structured in three levels as follows; 

Level 1 - Ordinary Certificate in BIM
100%
Level 2 - Advanced Certificate in BIM
100%
Level 3- Executive Certificate in BIM
100%

Each incubation, acceleration or scaling program is built out of different modules that address the most important needs of the specific group of innovators or companies. The BIM trainings are conducted across the African continent, and are hosted by AAIN and its partners in those countries. Below is the BIM Calendar across the continent for 2023 and 2024.
