The first decolonial, AI-powered VR platform for cultural preparedness that transforms how the world engages with Africa.
Travelers often arrive at African destinations unprepared, unintentionally perpetuating harmful colonial dynamics. Despite good intentions, the lack of pre-travel cultural immersion creates a burden on host communities.
Unprepared arrivals enforce colonial dynamics and miss opportunities for genuine connection.
Host communities are forced to educate rather than engage, leading to transactional rather than transformational experiences.
"Clashes between Western tourists and African communities often result from misunderstandings... Many issues could be avoided with better cultural awareness."
wimbi.io is a cultural preparedness platform. We replace reactivity with preparation using three core pillars.
Built with and owned by host communities. We shift the narrative power back to the destination, ensuring content is authentic, not extractive.
Experience destinations before you arrive. Our VR scenarios build deep emotional empathy, moving beyond simple "dos and don'ts" lists.
Interactive, culturally informed AI guides provide nuanced local knowledge, answering the questions you might be afraid to ask.
A scalable ecosystem serving the entire travel value chain.
Empowering organizations with cultural competence and ethical travel standards.
Large-scale deployment for cultural diplomacy and national responsible tourism strategies.
This isn't just Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)—it's our competitive advantage.
We are building a B2B and B2G ecosystem where departure countries pay for the training, but destination countries control the content and the financial benefits.
Whether you are an investor, a potential partner, or a business wanting to learn more, we want to hear from you.
