Context:
On August 10, 2019, African Diaspora Network will convene investors, thought leaders, and philanthropists to discuss how to shift global perspectives toward Africa as the next frontier for Venture, Impact, and Philanthropic investments. Key topics will include local VC fund formation, regional opportunities and challenges, and how to best connect African startups to opportunities.
Our speakers will explore ways in which African business and social entrepreneurs, whether in the diaspora or on the Continent, can get access to capital. They will share their experiences and BOLD measures to increase access to grow their businesses and make a difference in their communities.
