Traditional STEM education faces critical barriers. NovaTech Labs provides the complete solution.
Born from the vision to democratize quality STEM education across East Africa
NovaTech Labs was founded in Mwanza, Tanzania, with a bold mission: to ensure every Tanzanian student has access to world-class STEM education, regardless of their school's resources or location.
We've seen firsthand how students in Dar es Salaam, Arusha, and rural villages across Tanzania hunger for hands-on learning experiences. Traditional education leaves them unprepared for the digital economy. NovaTech Labs changes that.
Our Portable Maker Space brings robotics, coding, electronics, and engineering directly to secondary schools—creating the next generation of African innovators, engineers, and problem-solvers.
