Who We Are
"Inua" is a word from Swahili that means "to empower," "to uplift," "to raise."

Our Story
Inua Hub began with a simple idea: that digital skills and entrepreneurship could transform lives and communities. Founded in 2025, we started as a small workshop series in Lisbon and Dar es Salaam, bringing together young professionals eager to learn and grow.
As our community grew, so did our vision. Today, we operate in multiple locations across Portugal and Tanzania, serving thousands of individuals and businesses each year. Our programs have evolved, but our core mission remains the same: to empower through knowledge, connection, and opportunity.
