About VC4Africa meetups
Venture Capital for Africa (VC4Africa.biz) is the largest online community connecting African entrepreneurs and investors. Our meetups serve as an additional networking venue where VC4Africa members and supporters meet face to face to share thoughts and ideas. There are no speeches and no agenda which allows for lots of networking and info swapping. Just remember, at VC4Africa meetups everyone is expected to pay for their own drinks ;-)
At the meetups on November 20th we've chosen one central question: "What do you see as actions to take (as an individual or with the wider community) to multiply investments in African startups over the next year?" VC4Africa will collect the output from these discussions across the world.
The Innovation Hub has the following to say on the matter: "To make it happen, we have to consider Africa as a 54 countries continent and multiply pre-investment initiatives such as screening meet-ups, incubation, Angel and Seed Capital. Everything is about world class standards and creating value on a market. From agriculture to services, from old school industry to techno project, Nano and small cap ARE the generators of the National growth rate. Sky is the limit."
