Re-introducing Djassi Africa. We advance and back African and Afro-diasporan innovators building tech-enabled startups to solve the world's greatest challenges. We envision technology, entrepreneurship, and bold innovators as the catalyst for the socio-economic transformation of the African continent and the rest of the world. Our mission is to unlock the potential of these innovators and accelerate the growth of their businesses to deliver impact at scale. And how do we do it? 1) Venture Building - we accelerate and mature high potential early-stage startups into investable and market-ready businesses (Idea, pre-Seed and Seed stages). 2) Ecosystem Building - we follow a data-driven approach to embed diversity, equity, and sustainability in the DNA of innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems. 3) Funding - we are angel investors, typically one of the first investors in early-stage startups that require much more than financial capital to grow and scale. We are pan-African with a current priority on Lusophone Africa countries (PALOP) and the Afro-diaspora in Europe. Djassi Africa was founded in April 2020 by Fernando Cabral and Rudolphe Cabral.
