Whizzy Innovation Hub Becomes Impact Hub Kumasi, Joins Global Network

Whizzy Innovation Hub has transitioned to Impact Hub Kumasi, joining an international network spanning more than 60 cities, according to the organisation’s commemorative publication.

The publication marks October 22, 2026, as the beginning of the new identity, following seven years of training and entrepreneurship support in Kumasi.

Registered in August 2018 as Whizzy Business & Tech Solutions, the organisation began training in 2019 and became Whizzy Innovation Hub in 2023. It moved to its current premises at Aseda House in Adum in 2024.

Over the years, its work has included partnerships with GIZ, SNV, MEST Africa and Generation Ghana, covering digital skills, business development and employability.

Among its major initiatives is the Mastercard Foundation-sponsored GROW Project. The organisation reports that the programme trained more than 240 participants across six cohorts between 2024 and 2026, with over 70 per cent securing employment within three months.

The transition follows a successful application to the Impact Hub Network in November 2025.

Led by co-founders Samuel Aboagye, Akwasi Ossei-Boateng and Mary Adoma Aboagye, the hub’s new identity marks its expansion from a local training business into an internationally connected entrepreneurship community.
