The inaugural African Venture Philanthropy Alliance (AVPA) Conference and Angel Fair Africa (AFA), two events focused on growing and supporting the impact and startup investment ecosystem in Africa, will be hosted back-to-back in Nairobi, Kenya in November.
The two events are a joint effort between AVPA, an organisation on a mission to increase the flow of capital into African social investments and support its effective deployment for maximum impact; and Chanzo Capital, a venture capital firm that focuses on financing the growth and development of innovative tech startups and scaleups in Africa.
The 2024 AVPA Conference is scheduled to take place on November 4-6, and will convene leading social investors and other Impact practitioners to explore conversations and highlight opportunities that catalyse Africa’s sustainable growth.
Following closely, Chanzo Capital will host the 11th Angel Fair Africa on November 7-8, and will focus on doing deals between investors and early-stage entrepreneurs.
Together, these events will jointly provide attendees with comprehensive insights and interactions that spotlight innovative financing and sustainability strategies while exploring the use of catalytic capital, capacity building and community to drive tangible impact across the continent.
