Start-up OniriQ launches pre-sales of its SOLARBOX solar kit on the ULULE crowdfunding platform: https://fr.ulule.com/oniriq/. After 18 months of R & D, OniriQ markets an innovative and eco-responsible solar kit to provide rural African families with access to autonomous energy, internet and multimedia.


The 25 W solar kit incorporates a WIFI hotspot and comes with a 19-inch HDTV and 3 LED lights. OniriQ is committed to sustainable and responsible design: the solar kit batteries will be removable and recyclable. Proposed at a price of 350 € TTC, the product will be delivered to individuals in 7 African countries. The campaign will finance the industrialization of the solar kit.

The startup has been working since 2016 in close partnership with the Energies pour le Monde Foundation, expert for 28 years in decentralized rural electrification projects in the South. SOLARBOX is currently tested with rural families in Senegal in partnership with SONATEL (Orange Senegal) for Telecom infrastructure and Orange Money for mobile payment.

As part of the launch of its solar kit, OniriQ collaborated with the designer Myriam MAXO to propose a limited edition with an original motif inspired by the bazin.

OniriQ will set up a branch in Dakar in the summer of 2018 and will produce its solar kits in Senegal from 2019.

CEO AfrikaTech

Comme beaucoup de personnes j’ai connu l’Afrique à travers des stéréotypes : l’Afrique est pauvre, il y a la guerre, famine… Je suis devenu entrepreneur pour briser ces clichés et participer à la construction du continent. J’ai lancé plusieurs entreprises dont Kareea (Formation et développement web), Tutorys (Plate-forme de e-learning), AfrikanFunding (Plate-forme de crowdfunding). Après un échec sur ma startup Tutorys, à cause d’une mauvaise exécution Business, un manque de réseau, pas de mentor, je suis parti 6 mois en immersion dans l’écosystème Tech au Sénégal. J’ai rencontré de nombreux entrepreneurs passionnés, talentueux et déterminés. A mon retour sur Paris je décide de raconter leur histoire en créant le média AfrikaTech. L'objectif est de soutenir les entrepreneurs qui se battent quotidiennement en Afrique en leur offrant la visibilité, les connaissances, le réseautage et les capitaux nécessaires pour réussir. L'Afrique de demain se construit aujourd'hui ensemble. Rejoignez-nous ! LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/boubacardiallo
