About us
Understanding Ecosystems to Better Steer Them
What We Do
Governments invest billions in innovation and entrepreneurship across Africa. But without a precise map of who does what, with whom, and at what quality level, these investments remain blind. OSE in Africa fills this strategic intelligence gap.”
Our Unique Approach
The largest database: 16,000+ support organizations catalogued, qualified against 14 proprietary indicators covering 5 theoretical dimensions (resources, knowledge, social capital, institutions, psychological capital).
State-of-the-art algorithms: Ecological network analysis, community detection (Louvain), multi-criteria centrality, resource flow analysis (NRBV), meta-organizational diagnostic.
A longitudinal perspective: Over 10 years of continuous observation, enabling identification of evolution trends, disruptions, and emerging opportunities.
How We’re Different
| Traditional Approach | OSE Approach | Decision-Maker Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Self-reported surveys | Big Data + Qualification | Objective, unbiased data |
| Static snapshot | 10+ years time series | Understanding the dynamics |
| Isolated actors | Network analysis | See who works with whom |
| Macro-economics | Meso-analysis (value chain) | The “missing link” of public policy |
