📸 Wednesday night’s Breega x SheEOs event brought together women determined to break into VC, sparking real conversations and exploring what it really takes to thrive in venture capital. What is the VC job about? An investor's daily work largely revolves around building relationships and connecting people with each other Lucile Beaume and Cléa DOSNE led discussions, covering: 🔍 Breega’s approach to scouting and evaluating startups ⚡ The challenges of the industry and how decisions are made in VC 👩🚀 Why women are essential to venture capital—and why they’re sought after. The big takeaway? Focus on the value you'll bring to founders and why they'd choose you as an investor, not just on what the founder could bring to your fund. Investing in a startup is a long-term partnership, so getting aligned on vision and values right from the start is key.

🌍 Our Lagos-based team, Tosin Faniro-Dada and Haïle Amegashie, along with Ben Marrel shared snapshots of their time at Moonshot by TechCabal. 👉 Here are the key takeaways: 1. There is a need for more collaboration amongst entrepreneurs, investors, and governments who need to work together to create the right ecosystem that empowers African innovation. 2. African startups should focus on solving real issues like transport, food security, and electricity. Investors play a crucial role in enabling digital solutions to tackle these challenges. 3. VC funding isn’t always the best route—raising capital comes with a cost. An entrepreneur's equity story can make or break their journey. 4. There’s a pressing need for a legal framework that allows entrepreneurs and investors to travel and work seamlessly across Africa. #MoonshotAfrica
