From the day 1 of muAccra, we stood together as diverse groups of builders, opening a new chapter for the web3 ecosystem in Africa. And we are proud to say we have met our goals for muAccra, setting the stage for a long-term plan led by African leaders for African builders, the African Onchain Collective.

Special thanks to our sponsors who believed in our vision. And supporters who made this happen.
The muAccra working team consisted of two powerful forces: Team Aya and The mu crew.
AyaHQ is a trusted builder ecosystem dedicated to growing the on-chain builder economy in Africa. We identify promising African builders, establish distribution networks, and support the development of real-world applicable technologies.
The mu is a community where talents from diverse backgrounds come together to ignite change worldwide.
Both teams will continue to foster the long-term movement (African Onchain Collective.), working alongside other African community leaders.
