Scaling Impact: Private Market Investing in Africa
16:00 – 17:00
Africa’s private markets are at an inflection point. With a young, rapidly growing population, accelerating technology adoption, and pressing needs across infrastructure, healthcare, agriculture, and climate resilience, the continent offers investors unique opportunities to achieve both competitive returns and meaningful impact. Yet, scaling private capital in Africa requires navigating diverse regulatory frameworks, building trusted partnerships, and designing investment models that can drive inclusive and sustainable growth.
This webinar brings together leading voices from across the African private capital ecosystem to explore how private equity, venture capital, and blended finance strategies are being deployed to unlock long-term value. Speakers will discuss the evolution of the fundraising landscape, how local fund managers are shaping impact outcomes, and the ways in which global investors can participate in Africa’s next phase of growth.
Beyond the headline opportunities, the session will also address practical considerations around portfolio construction, exit pathways, and risk management—drawing on real-world examples from across sectors. Participants will gain insights into how private capital is not only financing Africa’s growth but also enabling solutions to some of the world’s most urgent challenges, from climate change to job creation.
