As we approach Africa Early Stage Investor Summit 2024, I'm reflecting on Mauritius' unique position in the African investment landscape. 🇲🇺🌍 Having witnessed Mauritius' role as a gateway for African investments during my private equity days, I'm convinced we can replicate this success in early-stage investing. 🚀 Since COVID-19, we've seen a surge in innovative entrepreneurs tackling real societal and environmental challenges. Yet, a critical gap remains — early-stage funding. Too many promising ventures wither due to lack of financial support. 🌱 At Mo Angels, we're proud to have nurtured entrepreneurs from their earliest days, watching them grow and make an impact. But we need more. We need policies that encourage angel investing, innovative financing instruments, and a shift in mindset 🔄💡. In this dynamic era, Mauritius has a significant opportunity to position itself as a key player in Africa's entrepreneurial ecosystem. We have the foundation to become a launchpad for innovative ventures across the continent. 🙌🏽 #AESIS2024 is an important step in this journey. It's a chance for us to learn, connect, and collaboratively address the challenges in early-stage investing. 🤝📈 #AESIS2024 #EarlyStageInvesting #MoAngels #AngelInvesting #StartupEcosystem #Innovation #Africa #Mauritius
