Freetown, Sierra Leone, November 9th / PRNewswire / -- Agilix Labs has received a grant and will use artificial intelligence and cloud technology through Amazon Web Services ( AWS ) to support Sierra Leone's Finder project. This project is operated by Future Learning Institute ( FLI ), and Agilix Labs established this organization in 2025 under an agreement with the country's Ministry of Technology and Higher Education. On November 10th, FLI will officially launch the project and open a second community learning center at the Freetown Institute of Technology.

Finder refers to a young person who comes to a community to ask for advice. Finder combines artificial intelligence with local judgment to verify the work and brings back results that can be used by vendors, farmers, or teachers.

This project is aimed at young people in Sierra Leone who have the qualifications to enter university but have not been able to secure a place to study, including young women, students with disabilities, as well as those from rural areas and low-income families.

FLI, the person in charge of the center in Sierra Leone, said: "Our young people understand their own community better than anyone else. I promised myself that no matter what education I received in the United States, I would bring it back to my community. We started from Kono. Now Freetown also has its own center."

In a one-year project, participants will take on issues from local businesses and community organizations and use artificial intelligence to provide answers. The course will be conducted on the Agilix Dawn platform, which can continue to operate even in the event of signal interruptions. With this funding, the participants' AI work will be carried out through Amazon Bedrock on AWS.

Agilix Labs, co-founder, chairman, and CEO, Curt Allen stated: "We established FLI to help young people obtain job opportunities, starting with those who are ready to learn but have no place to do so. In our centers, they use AI to serve their communities. Finder is the job for which we are training them."
