We are thrilled to partner with Zone. Here's why we invested. @FlourishVC flourishventures.com/perspectives/w…
This session explores the stories of capital providers with purpose, highlighting their experiences, challenges, and successes in investing for impact @adeeb_ahamed @AmeyaUpadhyay @habyarimanab @iaboyeji @TaiPanich_ @matteorizzi #IFF2023 #Entreprenuership #Investing @Kigali_IFC
@AdvisorsPula is proud to respond to the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan (PREPARE) Call to Action to accelerate #climateadaptation by committing to help protect 100 million smallholder farmers across sub-Saharan Africa by 2026 by unlocking $20 billion in insurance coverage.
Nothing beats the thrill of witnessing firsthand the impact our portfolio companies are making. Today's visit and getting to hear from @fairmoney_ng customers was a true testament to the difference they’re making. Thanks for hosting us!
The idea that depositors are creditors to a bank is an absurd and outdated notion. Everyone just wants a checking account, not to loan the bank money.
We are hiring for @FlourishVC Africa team! Please apply here: flourishventures.bamboohr.com/careers/43
We're thrilled to announce the launch of our new affiliate investment program, Madica! Madica, short for 'Made in Africa,' is a sector-agnostic program to help under-served & mission-driven founders overcome systemic challenges faced when starting up. 🧵techcrunch.com/2022/10/24/glo…
Today, we launched @MadicaVC @AfriLabs in Lusaka. This is our humble attempt to serve pre-seed stage African founders with capital and company-building support that is available today only to a few well-networked entrepreneurs. lnkd.in/gkeR7VPt @FlourishVC
