Its second phase will consist of a Business Plan Competition whereby students from universities: KIST, NUR and SFB will have to develop and submit a business plan not exceeding 1500 words to submit not later than June 15th 2013.

The African Innovation Prize aim at encouraging entrepreneurial skills amongst Rwandan youth in general .DREAM, DESIGN, and DEDICATE is their trinity philosophy in as far as business development is concerned.

The AIP Business Plan Competition was piloted with KIST Entrepreneurship Club in 2010 and 2011. In 2012, the online competition expanded to include three other universities: KIST, SFB, and NUR.

Students from other universities are urged to establish similar clubs in both public and private universities
