Qwili Sources Further Funding to Reach Breakeven  We are excited to announce that we have just secured Pre-Series A funding! This is part of an investment round that comes after a year of hard work restructuring our business model, priming ourselves for sustainable growth.    Having demonstrated that a considerable appetite for our offering exists among our target users by growing transaction volumes from $1.2mn in 2022 to over $8mn in 2023, the focus has shifted to improving the quality of our revenues. Qwili will use the funding to refine its product, expand the range of services it enables its users to sell and distribute, and focus on growing its user base in key localities.   The round is led by elea Foundation. Other participants in the round are E4EAfrica, Oppenheimer Generations (OG Impact Fund), Anza Capital and well-placed home office and angel investors. We are deeply grateful to all investors for their support of our mission.

Networking with visionary entrepreneurs and VCs at the Wine & Venture Summit revealed a promising outlook for Africa's future. By 2050, Africa will be home to 2/3rds of all young people, propelling 7 of the top 20 fastest-growing economies. However, funding remains disproportionately low at just 1%. Let's unite to build stronger bridges of investment and collaboration! Join us in fostering innovation and empowering change for Africa's prosperity.
