1300 candidates -> 1 winner: OKO


The Orange Social Venture Award for Africa and Middle East aims to reward every year the best innovative and socially responsible business projects in Africa and the Middle East. This 8th edition unfolded in two phases: first the candidates participated to a national competition, then an international jury gave a grand prize to the best national winners.

OKO arrived 3rd in the National competition in Mali, therefore qualifying for the international competition.
