Uncovered Fund Showcase Africa 2022

About the showcase

The digitalization of the economy is growing rapidly in Africa and other emerging markets. Innovators worldwide are trying to make the world a more prosperous place by breaking free from existing concepts. In Africa, where people don’t have enough addresses, bank accounts, or social infrastructure, startups are leading and innovating the future of 1.2 billion people in a world different from ours. It’s a reinvention of cities and affluence that leaps over the fence. But Africa’s digital society, which is being created by jumping over existing concepts, hints at the future of Japan. We are holding a tech conference where the innovators leading Africa’s future will gather.

The event aims to encourage Japanese companies and tech & investment community to take an interest in African business and get insights from Africa to consider the future of Africa and Japan.
