Our mission at Sinapis is to make disciples and alleviate poverty through the power of entrepreneurship. We seek to foster the development of entrepreneurs and the growth of Kingdom businesses.

After ten years, we have surpassed the milestone of training over 6,000 entrepreneurs and are now entering an expansion stage which includes expansion within and outside of Kenya. Our current core offerings are as below:
- Sinapis Aspire. The Aspire program is a 9-week business training program for people who want to start a business and would like to know how to successfully bring their idea to life.
- Sinapis Academy. Sinapis partners with local organizations to deliver the Sinapis Academy, an intensive 16-week business training program similar to a mini-MBA but customized for early and growth-stage ventures. This program is extremely practical, locally customized and specifically designed for entrepreneurs looking to grow their businesses.

- Fast Track Accelerator Program. The Sinapis Fast Track Accelerator (FTA) program is a 6-month accelerator that serves up to 15 graduates of the Sinapis Academy per year who have businesses capable of significant growth. The program begins with a customized business assessment for each participant coupled with access to high quality consultants, professional advisors, advanced training, investor match-making and biblical integration.
- Sinapis Alumni Network. Sinapis is committed to offering ongoing support of our alumni, with
the intent to see the community flourish. This involves regular communications, events with valuable training and networking components, mentoring, and help with access to capital.
