Our Thesis

Why Founders of African Descent

We believe founders of African descent represent one of the most underserved and high-potential segments of the global startup ecosystem.

Underserved Market

Despite representing a growing share of global entrepreneurs, founders of African descent receive less than 1% of VC funding. This creates opportunity for outsized returns.
