Our Mission
Renvia IT Foundation exists to bridge the digital divide through circular technology. We connect the surplus of retired IT equipment in the UK with the critical need for digital access in Africa, creating a sustainable model that benefits communities on both continents.
Our mission is built on three pillars: environmental responsibility through e-waste reduction, social impact through digital inclusion, and economic sustainability through circular business practices. By partnering with Renvia IT Ltd in the UK and operating Renvia Tech Hub Africa in Nigeria, we create a complete ecosystem that transforms unused technology into educational opportunity.
Every device we process represents more than just recycled hardware – it's a pathway to education, employment, and empowerment for young people across Africa.
How Our UK-Africa Pipeline Works
Our circular model connects two continents through a proven, compliant, and impactful process.
The Journey of a Device
- Collection in the UK: Renvia IT Ltd provides free, insured collection of retired IT equipment from UK organisations nationwide
- Secure Processing: All devices undergo secure data wiping, professional assessment, and refurbishment in compliance with UK regulations
- Quality Control: Devices are tested, sorted, and prepared for their second life, prioritising reuse over recycling
- Deployment in Africa: Refurbished equipment is channeled through Renvia Tech Hub Africa to schools, youth programmes, and community initiatives
- Ongoing Support: We provide training, maintenance support, and continuous engagement with partner organisations
