The investors presented a variety of regional and global VC firms, including, AfricInvest, Algebra Ventures, Catalyst, DiGaME, Grosvenor Africa, Invest Africa, LoftyInc Capital Management, RMBV, and Global Ventures.
In partnership with Innovate 4 Good and HD Afrika, the Impact Investment Forum aims to explore the way forward to unlock Africa’s potential in impact investing to achieve its sustainable development goals by 2030.
