The founders will showcase their businesses in front of the investors at Africa Early Stage Investor Summit in Cape Town on November 13 to 14, with the aim of raising US$250k to US$5million in Series A capital.

All companies provide technology-intensive or innovation-based products or services that are currently available in one or more African markets.

The 12 companies are 7keema (Egypt), Brimore (Egypt), Buseet (Egypt), CredPal (Nigeria), CrowdForce (Nigeria), FinChatBot (South Africa), FlexClub (South Africa), LifeBank (Nigeria), Mobiz (South Africa), Snapnsave (South Africa), Yassir (Algeria) and VRapeutics (Egypt) for the Seed+ category.

During the residency, the startups will have the opportunity to interact with and learn from their mentors, peers, and partners, before delivering their pitches on the main stage of the Africa Early Stage Investor Summit.

The programme offers two days of networking opportunities where entrepreneurs will also engage with interested investors during deep-dive sessions. The participants will pitch to a wider audience of corporates, investors and tech professionals at VC4A’s partner event, AfricaCom.
