    🚀 We’ve officially launched Kila Hatua Mixx! 🚀 Angelica Pesha -CEO of Mixx & Pierre Canton-Bacara -CEO of Yas unveiled our bold new campaign to accelerate financial inclusion across #Tanzania — ensuring no one is left behind in the journey . “Kila Hatua Mixx is not just a campaign; it is a journey. We believe small, consistent steps add up to big change” - Angelica Pesha At #MixxbyYas, we’re not just a service provider — we’re our customers’ ally, walking with them at every step of their financial journey. Example; 📱 A mother in Dodoma using Mixx Nivushe Plus loan to get her child’s school fees instantly. 💼 A small business owner in Arusha saving through Kibubu to expand her business. 🌾 And a farmer in Morogoro receiving mobile payments via Lipa kwa Simu before he’s even left the market. 📌During the expert panel, experts pointed out that Tanzania has made huge strides in financial inclusion and the opportunities remaining to enhance consumer protection and reach more underserved communities. They also reminded us on the importance of savings culture in reaching goals. 🔵Kila Hatua Mixx is our answer — combining digital financial services, financial literacy, and strategic partnerships to give every Tanzanian the tools to move forward, one step at a time. Here’s to bigger dreams, stronger communities, and a future where every step counts- and Mixx will be right there as a true ally . #KilaHatuaMixx #FinancialInclusion #DigitalEconomy

    These photos show the Binti Digitali workshop under the UN Women African Girls Can Code Initiative (AGCCI), which was recently held in Dodoma and brought great joy among the participating girls. This workshop was organized with the aim of empowering girls and young women by equipping them with digital skills that will help improve their lives economically and socially. Through our partnership with Yas Tanzania, we at Apps and Girls participated as stakeholders in the development of girls in the field of technology. In this workshop, we taught skills in Digital Marketing and Graphics Design, which are among the most important and in-demand skills in today’s job market. A total of 50 girls received this practical training, learning how to use technology to create, communicate, and promote products or services digitally. These trainings gave them motivation and knowledge that will be a driving force for their personal and social development. With a shared goal of empowering girls digitally, we believe that women have the power to do great things in the tech sector – when given the right opportunities and a supportive learning environment. By providing them with these modern skills, we prepare these girls to become creative, self-employed, or even gain formal employment in various institutions. At Apps and Girls, we put into practice the belief that every girl has the potential to amaze the world through technology. That is why we are committed every day to creating change by reaching out to them and providing relevant skills that meet today’s needs. We thank UN Women Tanzania and Yas Tanzania for being at the forefront of empowering women and girls, and for partnering with us to ensure this workshop was a great success.

    Empowering the Next Generation of Digital Leaders On Saturday, we marked a powerful milestone with a successful completion of the Binti Digitali training, part of the UN Women African Girls Can Code Initiative (AGCCI). 50 young women were trained on different digital skills from coding and robotics, website design and management, graphics design, and digital marketing. These are not just skills, they are tools for transformation. We are investing in a future where girls are not only digitally equipped but also confident, creative, and ready to lead. Since 2024, to date, over 150 girls from Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar have benefited from this initiative. They are becoming digital entrepreneurs, content creators, and STEM ambassadors, rewriting their futures and reshaping Tanzania’s digital landscape. #AnziaUlipo #BintiDigitali #GirlsInSTEM #DigitalEmpowerment #AGCCI #YasImpact #FutureIsFemale #DigitalTransformation #Tanzania

  • Celebrating the Power of Perseverance and Digital Empowerment Lisa Jones began her journey with coding and entrepreneurship training in 2015. She founded SmartShamba, a digital platform that connects farmers with agricultural experts, and developed an AI-based soil-testing prototype that delivers crop and fertilizer recommendations via SMS. Her ingenuity led her to a scholarship at the African Leadership Academy, and later, she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science from the University of Rochester in May 2025. This is a testament to the power of access, opportunity, and innovation that Yas has made available to the girls like Lisa who is now a professional digital developer. #WomenInTech #DigitalEmpowerment #YouthInnovation #GirlsInSTEM #TechForGood

  • At Yas, we believe in the power of technology to transform lives and in the potential of young women to lead that transformation. We’re proud to launch Cohort 3 of the Yas Girls and Young Women Empowerment Program, a flagship initiative that reflects our brand’s deep commitment to digital inclusion, youth empowerment, and nation-building through innovation. This week, 30 bright young girls begin their journey into the digital world, gaining hands-on skills in Website Design & Management, Mobile App Creation, Graphics Design, Digital Marketing, E-Entrepreneurship & Digital Business Skills This cohort builds on the outstanding success of previous participants, including graduates of the Jovia training program, many of whom have gone on to create digital platforms, launch freelance careers, and lead community tech initiatives. Their stories are a powerful reflection of our brand’s purpose: empowering communities through meaningful digital transformation. At Yas, we don’t just connect people we ignite potential.

    Great things don’t wait , they begin right where you are. As a true reflection of the Anzia Ulipo spirit, we had the honour of partnering with 20 remarkable young Tanzanian businesses to showcase their products and services in our pavilion at the 49th Dar es Salaam International Trade Fair (SABASABA 2025), one of East Africa’s largest and most influential trade expos. From tech innovators and fashion designers to artists and foodpreneurs, these entrepreneurs showed us what it truly means to start with courage, create with conviction, and believe in your vision no matter where you begin. At Yas Tanzania, we believe being an ally means more than providing connectivity. It means showing up where it matters on the groung  beside real people driving real progress. Anzia Ulipo is our promise to be present in every hustle, every pitch and every bold first step. To the 20 businesses we walked with during SABASABA: your passion and resilience inspire us. To every  young Tanzania chasing their dream we see you, we support you, and we’re right here with you in  every step of the way.
