Ingressive Capital; Who we are and what we offer African Innovators
We are a Venture Capital firm funding the next generation of African innovators.
Ingressive Capital invests $100k to $200k checks into Pre-Seed to Seed startups, as well as provide follow-on funding with our own investor base, who run some of the leading funds in the world. We seek for post-launch founders with a great product, solving a big problem, and work with them on ways to grow and scale through business development, partnerships, and financial support.
In other words, tech-enabled startup founders with great products solving vital problems in Africa are the reason why we do what we do.
What we offer:
Ingressive Capital (IC) serves as a “feeder fund” for African technology companies. 80% of our limited partners run later stage investment vehicles. 20% run Africa’s traditional billion-dollar industries.
Through Ingressive Capital’s network of limited partners (investors in their fund) including those who runs Y Combinator, Techstars, WTI and over 20 other top funds and accelerators, they help companies get follow-on funding from abroad.
Also, given that about 20% of our limited partners run the energy, banking, telco, and shipping/logistics sectors across Africa, we can provide business development, partnerships and guide companies to major contracts and business opportunities.
What we’re looking for:
You have launched your startup, have initial traction (i.e. money, users, etc.).
You have a clear business model.
You are a high growth technology business targeting a scalable market.
You and your team are bright, hungry, and know your market better than anyone else.
Ingressive Capital is one of the first, if not the first, investment in your company.
Your valuation is $250k to $2M (we will go up to $7.5M opportunistically, but target earlier stage, and to be one of the first cheques into the company)
We also provide;
Access to 10k+ talent pool of developers & designers
Business development & partnerships support through our investors’ network
Follow-on funding & access to international capital through our investors who run accelerators, incubators, banks and growth-stage funds seeking African startups
Platform to showcase and source in front of thousands of techies, global investors & billion-dollar tech companies
