Freetown, Sierra Leone, November 9, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- Agilix Labs indicates that the company has obtained funding from Amazon Web Services through AWS Education Equity Initiative, which will be used to support Sierra Leone's Finder project with the aid of artificial intelligence and cloud technology. This project is implemented by Future Learning Institute ( FLI), and FLI is an organization established by Agilix Labs in 2025 in accordance with an agreement reached with the country's Ministry of Technology and Higher Education. On November 10, FLI will officially launch the project, and a second community learning center will be opened at the Freetown Institute of Technology ( Freetown Polytechnic ).

Finder refers to a young person to whom the community will seek help with questions. Finder combines artificial intelligence with local expertise to verify the work content and provides results that can be used by vendors, farmers, or teachers.

This project is aimed at young people in Sierra Leone who meet the qualifications for university admission 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.

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

In a one-year project, participants will receive questions from local businesses and community groups and collaborate with artificial intelligence to provide answers. The course will be conducted on Agilix Dawn, a platform that can continue to operate even after signal interruptions. Thanks to this funding, the participants' AI projects will be carried out through Amazon Bedrock on AWS.

"We founded FLI to help young people find jobs, starting with those who are willing to learn but don't have a place to do so," said Agilix Labs, co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Curt Allen. "In our centers, they use AI to serve their communities. Finder is exactly the work we train them to do."

Strategists from Morgan Stanley, RBC, and JPMorgan Chase indicate that the recent heavy selling in U.S. stocks may be coming to an end, and the market is expected to stabilize and rebound before the end of the year.
