Join mLab Southern Africa

Before you apply to be an Ideas Lab or Accelerator Lab member, please note the following:

First make sure that these programs are for you by reading about our different types of membership.
You can apply as many times as you like with different mobile ideas.
You can enter as an individual — you don’t have to have a team.
Your idea can be an app (as in smart phone app or feature phone app) or a mobile service, e.g. SMS, USSD, Hardware, etc.
Your idea can be for-profit or not-for-profit.
Even after this application you will still need to be interviewed by someone from mLabsa before your membership is awarded.
If you want to send us any additional documentation, please email them to apply@mlab.co.za.
