Our thesis

We believe entrepreneurship is a key driver for development. Entrepreneurship should be a main driver in capturing sustainable economic growth, in particular, the high growth high potential ventures working to develop important innovations and disruptive new business models.

This breed of company offers a significant source of employment and provides an important income stream for future generations. The entrepreneurs VC4A exists to support contribute up to two-thirds of national GDP and provide the foundation for a stable middle class. They help form strong communities and are a powerful force for development.

Background

VC4A started with the mission to build up Africa’s start up community. Started in 2007, the network building organization has grown organically over the years into what is now the leading community working to build high growth high impact companies globally.

Increased economic momentum is fueled by a growing number of entrepreneurs and their ambition to transform society. It is imperative we seek out the collaborations and partnerships needed to bring together the capital, knowledge, and network these entrepreneurs require to succeed – and to provide every entrepreneur with an equal access to opportunity.

In collaboration with a growing network of partners, the VC4A community of entrepreneurs, mentors and investors are central to bolstering the Entrepreneurial ecosystem globally and offers a direct channel for anyone serious about being part of the next great success story.

Join the movement and take an active part today!
